    DFI Infinity UltraII-M2 can help you to reach high frequencies and it costs 74.99. also you can search information about this topic in AMD thread. there're many same threads like yours, so you'll find what you need.

    Sorry for my bad English

    The Abit KN9 has done a good job for me, I got it on a budget and it runs stable at 2.8GHz, could probably do more if I messed with it. I can confidently assume it can break 3.0GHz on a good stepping with good cooling.
