hey sorry bro... i am really noob here and dont think i will overclock my pc...
and i will be bringing this pc oversea so i dont wanna risk spoiling it ( since i am noob)....
i am aware of your suggestion above and would be buying item 2 and 3 on your list with a amd x2 6000...
i just want to know if the amd x2 6000 is good for noob like me.. and also what is the correct price for it??
thanks so much for your help!
x2 6000+ its good.
for black edition, dont worry. you just have to change the multiplier.
no voltage adding required so you wont spoil anything.
im using it 24/7. its damn good. google 'x2 5000+ black edition review'.
go to cycom website, their price their is quite fair. czone sometime over price.
they quoted rm440 for my proc and i got 365 at just pc.

bro devillman, 2 questions regarding your mobo
1) your MSI 790FX platinum has any CMOS reload function? Means that you can save your oc settings in the BIOS. After clear cmos or what, you can recall your settings from the cmos reload function.
2) how's your mobo response to an unsuccessful oc? It falls into something like safe mode / protection mode, remind you that something wrong with your settings or you have to clear cmos in order to make ur mobo back to work again?
1. yes I have 2 oc setting, similar to my asus 690 chipset mobo.
2. it has a protection failure, faced failed oc few times.
it stated overclock has failed, and restoring to default.
