We managed to get our hands on the ASUS P6T Deluxe with the OC Palm. For those not in the know this is an X58 board for the new Nehalem processor that comes with an external BIOS post device that also allows you to do some simple overclocking without accessing the BIOS. The OC Palm definitely makes the whole process simpler and comes complete with a hardware monitor (so you don't need to have separate thermometer and voltmeters to do overclocking) but it by no means replaces the BIOS settings. For a full review on the board and the OC Palm check it out in our latest issue of HWM ( HWM Dec 2008 ).
