Hi All,
Something that has occurred to me is that Overclockers do the excellent Grenadier GX6 AMD FX-6 6300 Black Edition @ 4.2GHz Six Core Gaming Bundle. for which I am currently using and its excellent value for money.

The thought occurs is there much benefit in having this particular bundle over purchasing the same motherboard (Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3), same RAM but instead of using the AMD FX6-6300 with the massive Akasa Nero cooler just purchasing the next CPU up - the AMD FX6-6350 which is clocked at 3.9Ghz and using the stock cooler that comes with it?

Not sure exactly how much difference between doing it either way would be. but I imagine it wouldn't be too much.

Any thoughts?

The only difference between the 6350 and 6300 is the clock speed.

So an overcloked 6300 (4.2ghz) is better than the stock 6350..

End of. :)
