If I go for Intel board without OC how will my pc perform and which Mobo shall i take ? Which Intel board is a good Overclocker ?
My PC runs 12 hours daily at a stretch. Will it be a problem to OC as my PC runs long hours daily. Will it harm my Mobo/Procy?

I've never overclocked my procy so I am a little bit worried...

if u wanna then dont get a Intel original board get a chipset one.

Yeah its just a matter of cooling, doesn't matter if u run ur PC 12 hours or 24 hours. Few of my buddies uses a E2160@ 3.4GHz and kept it running for a week!
