Its all good fun, anyway could anybody tell me a good CPU to Overclock when I decide to upgrade I thinking maybe a E8400 or E8500 I have heard that some people have had the clocks above 4Ghz.
P.S. This CPU is going to be the upgrade for my partners computer, she only has a 3Ghz Intel Celeron 346. LOL
lol....... well as long as your partner is not as ''gun ho'' with voltage as you have been the 8400 would be fine
jk
these chips are great clockers!! 4ghz is the standard for most ....i have seen one cooled by LN2 @ 6.7ghz
don't bother with the 8500 ...the 8400 will do those speeds with ease ...
if budget is an issue the XEON E3110 is worth a look this is the server version of the 8400
personally im not too fond of 45nm chips ...i myself am quite ''gun ho'' & these chips leave little room for error
