heyup all, Is it wise to couple an dlt3c xp1700 with the a7n8x, and what will it overclock to using fairly standard air cooling (80mm fan on CPU, exhaust fan or two, nothig ridiculous)? Im hoping for like 2500 or so speeds, what about the FSB though?
Its wise if you have adequate cooling to not fry the chip. FSB - you should be able to get near 200mhz depending on the ram. With a good cooler, you should be able to hit 2.0 - 2.2 GHz real speed.
With normal Crucial or Kingston CL2 PC2700 in two 512mb DIMMs, and probably a standard Coolermaster £10 heatsink with an 80mm fan on it (normally 60mm) maybe with a second fan blowing sideways over it at 7V or something...
