suedenim Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Not being able to find an nF3 Ultra I'm considering the jump to C2D. As I'm not Rothschild at the mo' I'm considering this board... ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA http://www.megapc.com.au/product_details_a..._part_indx=7150 It allows me to reuse a lot of my existing kit. I can probably get an E6600 off a mate for about £90 (~$170) (hopefully). Would this board be a bad choice for getting a good oc out of the E6600? If not then I'm open to other options but my Budget for CPU, MOBO, GPU, DDR2 is probably going to peak at £350. (If my missus finds out then this could be my last post - gulp) If this don't work I may just get the nF4 and try to get a decent PCIe GPU.

Kingfisher Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I'll assume you don't game, Dell widescreen aside. That board should work ok, you can expect at least a 3 ghz overclock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suedenim Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 I game - not hardcore due to work/wife/toddler etc. etc. So this board is not a good choice then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
