CPU/Mobo overclock i7 920 or 930?

I would say for the 3.5K difference its not worth the trouble.

What if that board is doa ? or it develops some issue in a few months. ?

3.5k for 5 years warranty + peace of mind is worth it IMHO :)

Cheers !!

All of the above will have no trouble getting you to 4 ghz.

If you want to be very sure then the best chances are with a Xeon. Look for the W3520 or W3530. Those are binned better by intel and generally have slightly better silicon and IMC's. Hence slightly better chance of getting to 4 Ghz.

Every Xeon i have seen has had no trouble hitting 4 ghz under 1.28V :)

cheers bro !
