dihartnell Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 i want to play around with the BUS speeds and volts insted of the multipliers and core volts, so all i want to do is build up a cheap rig on secondhand parts(old things i dont use) just to play around with the clocking Thats why I didn't get into sandybridge after I sold my C2D rig. Overclocking by upping a multiplier and core volts just didn't seem quite as much fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DnaAngel Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Practice makes perfect and i agree 100% as to wanting to start out on a system you dont necessarily need. sorry to say i dont know the exact answer to your OP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted September 17, 2011 Posted September 17, 2011 What other parts do you have?? I'd go Gigabyte for any P45 motherboards, not ASUS You might be hard pressed to find a p45 chipset board that supports ddr2 though... Iviythos would be the best person to find that kind of stuff though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locutus Posted September 17, 2011 Posted September 17, 2011 I know what you mean ,but he will be spending money learning on an 775 mb and cpu which oc's quite a bit differently than an i7 system. Learning the basic process works across all boards. So yeah, learning on 775 isn't going to hurt him at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Threaded Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Gigabyte has a cheap P45 motherboard right now, I forget what it's called. It sells for around $80 from Newegg. Only catch is that it uses DDR3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
