New to the forum been reading around for a year though,

 

Got an old semi here in Leeds, 2 story side extension but planning on using marmox

 

Opinions on replacing plasterboard with 30mm marmox instead?

If you are looking to add better insulation 

An insulated plasterboard would be more effective and cheaper

Thinking about replacing standard plasterboard with 40mm marmox multiboard, Reason? well a friend used it and says its better for thermal insulation

Near impossible to fix anything to raw Marmox. I built a washstand from it and let in blocks of wood where towel rails were going. At least with insulated plasterboard you have half a chance of fixing to it.

Better than what?

Spec says 0.034 W/m·K, standard value for polystyren based rigid insulation

For the same money you can get PIR backed plasterboard, and that is better than XPS.

Apart from tiled areas I can't see any reason to use Multiboard
