Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade my rig for as little as possible to keep me going until nehalem, i currently have the system below:
skt939 4400x2 at stock
Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro
DFI Lanparty UT nF4 SLI-D
2gb G.Skill PC 4000 DDR
7800GT 256MB in SLi
Is it worth upgrading the graphics card to a 8800gt/3870 or would i be bottlenecked by the processor and DDR (resolution is 1280x1024)?
Secondly, does anyone have step by step guide on how to overclock using this board and what OC i could realistically hope to achieve on air? FSB and multipliers on intel rigs i can understand.. but HT frequency and HT multipliers seem to have me stumped.
Thanks
