"Chip board" otherwise known as "oriented Strand Board" or more commonly (for short) OSB is for external sheating or floor sheathing only. All interior walls and ceilings should have sheetrock applied to them. This is a Strict fire code in every state I can think of. If you like the look of wood on your walls or ceilings, first apply sheetrock, 1/2 inch on the walls and 5/8 inch on ceilings, then apply chosen wood product over the sheetrock. Particle board resembles " glued together saw dust". It is used mainly in cabinetry work or innexpensive furniture, sometimes on stair treads. In my opinion particle board is not a good structural material. OSB fluctuates with the market anywhere from about $6.00 to$13.00 for a 4'x8' sheet. It sky rockets during hurricane season. "Sheetrock" is a brand name of gypsum board used for fire containment in most buildings, it usually runs about $5.00 to $8.00 per 4'x8' sheet.
