Have IS7 (865PE) ... stable with 2.4C@3.36 ... that's FSB of 280! Mem is 3:2
so at 187mhz .. standard 3200 ram
I'd say the 865 is a steal

The 875 is more stable, runs ~5% faster, and usually has a few more ports
than the 865.

the only difference is the 875p boards can use ECC RAM and the 865pe boards
cant.
