    Any P4 motherboard with the 800Mhz front side bus is supposed to support it. Lol, if you have the money to buy one, could you buy me one too?

    There are a lot of power and heat issues with the chip it seems going from what I've read from overclockers.com recently it seems to draw more than the planned Prescotts for socket 467 will and dissipate even more heat. I'd wait until the product is out and you see companies saying it supports the EE edition before buying a board, as some might not cut it.

    I'm running P4EE in an Asus P4PE, don't laugh, I know... (Keeping my costs down, soon to get an ASUS with "real" 800 FSB capability so I can get to 1Ghz FSB!!!!) I don't have any power or heat issues, I'm using an Antec 350W power supply and my idle temps are only 39C with a crappy TT Spark7. Any 800 FSB Mobo will work, ie Asus P4C & P800. Oh, SS, Prescott will not come in a socket 467, from what I hear its going to be socket 478 still.
