Hi
I am on a very tight budget, I need a highly overclockable system which may or may not be the best performance for money hardware.
Please suggest me a good CPU + Mobo in sub 150$, which can achieve atleast 20-30% overclocks at stock cooling with value RAM. I am open to S939 as well.
The motherboard must be either Asus, or Gigabyte, or MSI. Please specify how high does that mobo go?
an old XP1700 and a NF2 motherboard would do nicely, under $100, and I got 100% OC on it
akshay wants a new rig. so the proccy and mobo has to be new
so i want you ppl to suggest a new AM2+ mobo within $150, because this is for a school overcloking competition and so the budget can be stretched by at max $10. which budget mobo does 20-20% OC.. please help urgently as I have tyo get the rigs today
Intel setup with cedarmill celeron or P4 630, you can get higher % OC.
Someone else had a similar contest.. GL

used dfi nf3 and a new sempy 2800+, thats what my backup system is and it overclocks from 1.6ghz to 2.8-2.9GHz fully stable.
could probably get that for under 100 total.

I have an NF3 board I'd be willing to part with for 50 bux and the egg has 3400 venice cores for 80 bux. My son has the same setup it runs 275X10 1:1 on air with some ocz TCCD in there.

Why not just get an opteron 144 (939) $79, and like an asus a8n-e or gigabyte K8n...they're both about $80...probably could find something alittle cheaper @ newegg...you can hit like 2.9ghz+ stable
wow 2gb DDR is expensive...$205 is the cheapest non-used kit availble and its cas2.5-3-3-7.

Indeed the biostar with any 939CPU even 3000+ Venice will works fine up to 2.5GHZ if we assumed that he got very bad steeping and the biostar has on board VGAOriginally Posted by breakfromyou
