How high can these overclock with say a Zalman heatsink?

with liquid nitrogen cooling this can be overclocked to 3.000002 Ghz, #2.
Or, you could Google it yourself: http://bacon.com/kq82e8
Since Ben's filters probably mangled my bacon to bacon.com, go to google.com, enter the phrase "overclock AMD Phenom II X4 940 Deneb" and you'll get links to sites populated with folks who actually have done lab tests on overclocking this and many other chips.

This seems like a pretty good deal. I'm building a gaming system, should I be concerned that this is a DDR2 based motherboard?
