Hey, im buying a new pc off overclockers and I just wanted to know if you guys have any suggestions for changes. I would probably only want it for mild overclocking (taking the chip up to 2.4ghz) because im quite scared of breaking it.

Thanks for the reply - trouble is that if I get an ATI i'm going to eventualy want to have dual cards and that means i need a more expensive crossfire motherboard (which I gather is the same price as the fatal1ty?)

I stand corrected on the crossfire. Shame about the x1800, how long before thats discontinued? The x1900 is a bit out of my budget :(

Well thats cut £50 off the price anyway, the only other query I had was if the 450W powersupply would be enough for 2 X 7800GTs?

Out of curiosity, in the future when I want to get another 7800GT for SLI, will it have to be the exact same OcUK GeForce 7800GT Model? Or could it just be a similar make e.g. Ledtek with the same clock and memory speeds?
