    Best bet. Hyperthreading is not really needed, it helps, but it's not worth the price premium IMO. You didn't put the K in the product name, so i'm not sure if it's a typo, or you were looking at the locked version of the chip. If you want to overclock, make sure you get a K series chip.

    as for the mobo, there's not much difference these days, besides aesthetics, slot layout and what kinds of extras they throw in. The Asus you mentioned should be fine.
