Hey guys, I've been on the AMD side for so long I stopped playing with Intel right after the 478 Prescott release. I am curious though, I see Celeron M 370 at newegg ~80, are these good clockers bacause the price is good and what type of motherboard out of the box works well for them, matx or atx, onboard or agp or pcie ok, just looking for something stable with decent overclocks nothing too extreme, Ill probably be on air or maybe even water.

Same CPU, $60, shipping is about $8 I think. You might hit higher FSB with a 360J instead of the 370. It's only $50 at ewiz.

You'll need a socket 479 motherboard unfortunately. Native 479 boards usually run over $100 used. The other option is to buy an Asus P4P800 or P4C800 series motherboard and an Asus CT-479 socket adapter.

thx for the link to those processors, but what about boards, as an out of the box solution for decent overclocks what is the way to go? 875, 855, 915?
