How do these compare to the P35's when it comes to overclocking?

p45 chipsets are 65nm so they can reach some nice FSB's if you got a nice board.

Crossfire, you would watn x38/x48 chipset for its double x16 lanes, p45 splits the single x16 lane so its x8 and x8 when crossfiring. Its certainly better than p35's x16 +x4 though.

Very true, but one thing to keep in mind is that these P45 boards have PCI-E 2.0....so when it splits up into 8x + 8x it's the same as PCI-E 1.1 16x+16x.
