Hi

Will this

or this

(what's the difference actually)

be Ok to overlclock an e2180 to 2.66Mz easily enough.

(Ive just bought an e2180 and was going to get an evga nforce 650i full atx board, but hen thought I quite like the idea of a small micro system so just thought Id investigate)

Was going to get Geil pc6400 memory too. Will this be OK with this board?

And is there anything else I need to know if Im going to go the micro route using a micro tower case

many thanks
 
The main difference is the first one has on-board RAID and yes you should be able to use one to get 2.66GHz as their pretty decent clocking boards for their size.

The memory will also be fine :)

It should, but with this board, memory is one area you must be careful if you're overclocking.

The board doesn't have a 1:1 memory divider, so you need good clocking RAM.
 
There's a new BIOS out that gives you 1:1 (I hope), just trying to find it now. Still no sign of my Sugo though.

Depends how good your RAM is, hopefully with a bit of luck, my Ballistix will do 600MHz so I can get a reasonable overclock going.

Hey guys, im lookin at ordering some parts in a few weeks and i was just wondering, do you think i can get an E6320 to 3ghz with the s2?? It would be using ocz platinum pc6400 and a freezer 7 pro.

thanks
