There has been a lot of controversy here lately and I am wondering what the best CPU and motherboard combo for my new system would be. I am going to be overclocking.

Intel Motherboard- ASUS P5N-D
- CPU's
-- Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
-- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600

AMD Motherboard- GIGABYTE GA-M750SLI-DS4
- CPU's
-- AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+
-- AMD athlon Phenom x3 8750 BE
