Suggestions for purchasing new MOBO with CPU (overclock)
I could use some suggestions...
I want to upgrade from by ABIT KT7A motherboard with 1.2 GHz Thujnderbird chip to a faster board, Athlon XP CPU, etc. I am thinking about the Abit NF7-S board with a Barton core chip. I have read about overclocking and have never done that before..... 1. Does the NF7-S overclock well? 2. Should I get the 2500+ chip and overclock it or go to the 2800+ and overclock it? 3. If I overclock, what speed RAM (PC2700, PC3200)??? 4. What about cooling? I have the normal case fans and have added one extra in the front. Will I need additional cooling???? Suggestions? Dave |
