Hi

though i know it might be stretching my limits i was wondering if there was a decent am3 motherboard with reasonable overclocking potential?

Im trying to get a good motherboard and cpu combo for about the £220-250 mark i really want to push 3ghz but that might be asking abit too much also would it work with a 450 watt psu (antec)??

Any help is appreciated as im in a pickle about ddr2/ddr2+ and ddr3

id go for the cossair 650. and yeah the ddr3 thing got me for a while. ou can use ddr3 in all but the cheapest (i think its a gigabyte) AM3 mobo but only in dual channel. that spec looks nice but maybe spend an extra £1 on the ram and get the AM3 version of that ram. its exactly the same but runs on lower voltages
