Well, I wouldn't recommend that motherboard at all, it only works with one core. The Q6600 has dropped in price to $199, and you can get one of many other perfectly compatible motherboards with the remaining $80.

Currently that ad reads $159 for the E8400 and same ECS motherboard- a great price just for the E8400 by itself.

 

The ECS board is practically useless for Hackintosh use- the one core problem just sucks, unless someone's created a hacked BIOS by now.

 

Just get the processor, and use the (basically free) mobo for a nice Linux NAS box or something.

I have mine working 100% with bio "ECSG31_T_order2chaos". After ROM flashed, I getting corrupt CMOS several times, but I managed to get it working.
