that cpu spanks my 6300
I'd like to get one of these E2140s or E2160s. How much would it cost to switch from my current setup to one of these with a comparable motherboard?
you've already got ddr2 and pcie, so off the bat, you'd only need cpu and motherboard. you can upgrade bits and pieces as you go.
lot of p35 boards real cheap
cheapest at the moment looks to be http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec....9&RSKU=BA23929
$90 with a $20 rebate to make it $70. I actually just got this deal myself, but the board is still in the fedex box since I just moved houses and haven't had time to play with it yet.
the abit IP35-E is the board i'd recommend too. cheap and oc's to ~500fsb. perfect for people who don't need firewire and aren't going to run RAID. i plan to pick one up myself.
Anyone some tips to go higher then 415 FSB on a E2140 !?
My cpu runs 3.2Ghz on 1.2Vcore only, so i can get far more higher .
But i cant get passed 415 x 8 :(.
ANYONE TIPS ????
Rig is in signature ;) .
