    Why do they sell 3200 you say?

    Most people, companies etc do not intend on overclocking their PC's to obtain a decent spec'ed machine.

    Whereas enthusiasts who are usually poor... like me, would get the 2500+ and overclock it to 3200 speeds B)

    As long as you have decent cooling (in this case - a standard heatsink and Artic Silver would work) then Overclocking can be as easy as pie.

    It can damage your system if you dont take care.

    Follow the pinned guides if you have any queries about OC.


    p.s take it slow

    Damage?...probably not. It can be argued that the unit life may be shortened, but you won't have the CPU long enough to tell probably.

    Use more power?...oh yes, almost certainly. And the more you clock the more important the stability and cleanliness of the power you are supplying becomes.

    Get hotter?... again, yes. Sadly. How extreme you get dealing with this is a matter of personal taste. Lightly modified stock systems all the way to extreme solutions have been applied to combat the heat. Up to you.

    That's a good case. But checkout the Antec SLK3700AMB. Think it's on sale for $64 delivered. Use your own judgement. But that's my case + 1 120mm Antec case fan for the front.

    h**p://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.htm

    The Federal minimum wage in the USA is &#036;5.15/hour.

    I stand corrected.

    Its &#036;6.75 where I am, California.
    its &#036;7.15CDN here in Ontario [/b][/quote]
    And that is like 2 cents american. So i think we win.



    7.15 CAD = 5.31224 USD



    We loose. John Kerry wants to make minimum wage &#036;7.75
