Running an A64 3700 clawhammer (S754) and 6800 GT GS (AGP).

Upgraded to a 7800GT and an X2 3800 on a Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9.

Yeah yeah i know that board doesn't clock as well as a DFI but at least it's going to work after 2 months. I have broke my last 3 DFI boards and i'm fed up of them.

I'll do some "before" benchies starting tomorrow on A64 3700 at stock (then some clocking once I get my new mobo) (on water then Mach 2GT)). Then the X2 3800 on air. Overclocking the X2 on a Mach 2 GT, and the 7800GT on water next week. Then compairing the stock systems and the overclocked systems.

*Disclaimer - It's not going to be lab conditions!

The timing seems right since S754 and AGP is dead!!!!! New V old if you like.

Obviously the X2 is going to win but by how much? Overclocked V stock.
 
X2 stepping is CCBWE 0543, wether that will make a difference is yet to be seen. Plus it's dual core V single core. The most I got out of the 3700 claw so far is 2.7.
