Okay Guys, I'm keying this on my Opty 165 (939). I've OC'd her to 2.53 Ghz on air. I Can touch 2.8 - 3.00 Ghz with a watercooler (I'm sure) but will its my Asrock mobo thats holding me back ATM. I can upgrade to the DFI, but then again I will have to jump to AM2 when the quad cores come out. So, I'm kinda stuck here with the best OverClock I've ever had in my life.
Anyways, my bud just announced that he wants to get a new rig and has enough monie saved up for it.
Risky as he is, he does not mind the P4 805D or an Opty or maybe even an A64 3800+ to overclock.
I've been thinking lately. . . Is the 805D really that good; Will any 805D OC 4Ghz straight out of the box with a watercooler
? Or are there any special week numbers like in the case of the Opty 165??
Also, does anyone know if the AM2 chips OC better or worse?
Confused person here, could use your opionion.
