What is the best motherboard (chipset) for overclocking my Q9400?

Solution
i have the same processor in a second computer that i just use for tossing old hard drives in for backup mass storage. I haven't overclocked it, but really have no need to. i believe the G41 chipset is what you can still find some motherboards for sale on Newegg. At the same time, i would suggest you read 2 articles called "Which is the faster CPU? Old High End Vs New Low end" part 1 and part 2
