I would like to know the real skinny too.....

I spent a couple hours reading reviews at Anandtech and others. 

They seemed to really like the 975X chipset.  Not sure why Hayes and
others say not to get it.

They also tested some current P965 chipsets and liked them as well.  

They said all the boards they tested were pretty darn stable...

I must be missing something..  :)
