975 are better for OC but there's a wider range of 965 motherboards with better specs
And 965 is also reaaally good for OC anyhow

P35 are known as good overclockers (they hold FSB like hell, I've seen 500 Mhz many times) too.. The thing is, with the upcoming DDR3 memory (already available in a combo DDR2/DDR3 compability motherboard by Asus from the P5K series) and the PCI-Express 2.0 rule, which is yet to be released, wether it's a good idea or not to buy a new system right now IF YOU CAN WAIT

Quite true, in that price range the P5B is a real knock out..
However I think you should never limit a budget for motherboards not greater than 150 Euros (100 pounds), as cheaper motherboards will come down on you eventually (and the same applies to cheap power supplies
)
