Hi,

I have an intel celeron d 775 2.66ghz processor, ive overclcoked it to 3.3ghz but the mobo wont allow me to change vcore. Worst still i have an agp card not pci express :S

Basically i want a motherboard which is cheap and allows me to overclock as much as i want and if required a cheap but effective pci express card.

Im looking at a max of about 80-100 quid.

Any ideas?

what motherboard do you have now dude?

I got the asus p5b x

it doesn't allow me to overclock, well i cant increase vcore voltage or at least i can't find it.

More importantly i just realisd vista and agp dont mix lol, so may need a pci graphics card dudes.

Anyway spec me up or at least tell me how to increase the vcore voltage lol.

Im desperate

The cheapest motherboard I'd suggest is the Gigabyte S3 which retails for around £70, it is based on the 965P chipset.

As for graphics card, what are the intended uses? If it is nothing special then just get the cheapest card that is supported by Vista.
