| fact is that this lowend tbred (costing virtually as much as filling up my car) on an old mobo (2nd hand at 40-50 euro's) and an older cooler (2nd hand at 25-35 euro's) can get ya performance equal to THE PERFORMANCE OF A STANDARD 3000+ barton + nforce2 when the latter is not overclocked... Just try measuring a 3000+ barton with nforce 2 @ default 166 mhz versus this puppy running 175 mhz fsb @ almost 2200 mhz (and you would easily make it run at even higher fsb when on this mobo, so 11*165-200 is possible, getting even higher performance) the difference won't be very big... total : 150 euro's versus over 1000 euro's... he who does not overlock is an idiot and a moron...

| agree with Duron, deciding not to overclock doesn't mean you are an idiot or moron. I just wanted to show you the possible speed increase you can have , when you want top performance, but don't have the cash for it

| uhm you can use cheap *** PC3200 DDR and still obtain equal performance if you use an XP3000+ in your rig
