Hi
I wouldnt say that ive never overclocked before, but i havnt really been "OMG another 10FSB!" its more like i upped the fsb to 220 from 200 and thats it...However my current system blows, and i need a lot of CPU power. I like to do a lot of rendering, and im not stupid enough to buy a X6800.
So ill go for a e6300 instead, as ive heard it can run faster than the X6800 with Overclocking.
So ive been reading some forums, and ive come up with this:
e6300
Asus P5B Deluxe with the 0507 BIOS
250GB Hitatchi HDD ( I dont want raid 0 as my data is too important to loose, and raid +1 wont help me as i backup offline and online and raptors arn't big enough)(sata 2)
500GB Hitatachi HDD (sata 2)
Augidy 2 ZS sound card (already have this)
Sythe Ninja + or Tuniq cooling
Which ram should i use? I would to get a 1:1 ratio with 500FSB, if my motherboard and CPU allow upto about 530. I would preferably like to spend as *little* as possible however if the only thing which will do this is the corsair 6400c3 ram, ill get that (2x1gb sticks).
Also will a 7950GX2 fit in this motherboard? If not then a 512mb 7900GTX.
Also would i be able to get much more oc if i water cool the cpu gpu and northbridge (i want water cooling more for looks, but if it also helps oc then
)
