i'm fairly a noobie when it comes to overclocking... i read Tomshardware and they suggested that Pentium D 805 is the best bang for buck chip for Overclocking...
now what about AMD? what's the recommended chip? in terms of bang for buck la...cause my budget tight... thanks... |

Athlon 64 3000+ Venice. The best bang for the buck. To run this chip on stock is a sin!!

what is venice? is it a Mobo?
i just check the pricelist... Athlon 64 3000+ pricing not bad... what is the motherboard i should be using for overclock? and also the ram? i believe CPU, Mobo + ram is the most important stuff to consider first when wanna overclock right?

My Cap Ayam PSU can push my Venice +3000 till 2.3ghz...
Although I am considering changing my PSU, RAM and HSF to overclock further. |

i think i'll get the AMD 64 3000+ Venice... since it's not that expensive... waht's the best MOBO to pair with this CPU? And also what is the recommended graphics card to pair this up?
