wow!

you should quickly go to the benchmark post and claim 2 posts

use one for your computer you have now and the 2nd post for the new one you will have working in a month

that way we can see your performance gains

use the template i made and create 2 posts

fill in the benchmark numbers when you have time

can't wait to see your results

cheers

you can buy harley decals cheap.

Sorry for bad analogy...you didn't say what cpu you were using so if you put harley logo on then you have a harley pc, an overclocked harley=stroker.

You should think about that XP 3400, arent they the 64bit cpu's ? I don't think they work in the A7N8X deluxe ;)

Get a XP 2400 or 2500 barton mobile chip, they're still unlocked & overclock to XP 3200 easy :)

well the barton core xps are 3400+ as well, plus i have a xptmc unclocker for all xp amds ! so i can load it up to 24X200 if i wanted to with that adapter,

Shadow I can't find any XP 3400 bartons, i think they stop at XP 3200. the XP 3400 is 64bit. Also the xptmc unclocker doesn't work on Nforce2 boards, a new locked CPU is locked on Nforce2 no matter.

If your getting a XP 3400 64bit you need a different MB, if your getting a new barton they're all locked now so if you want to use the xptmc unclocker you still need a different MB.

If you want a regular (non-64bit) barton then get one of the mobile chips, they're going like hot cakes and soon AMD will catch on and lock them also....:(

your right they stopped at3200 lol i was remebering my oc with the 1800, iv used my xptmc on my asus with no probs, and its worked with the last system i built, guy bout the same board i did i made his 2500+ barton a 3600 +
