Hi all,

I'm looking to purchase a new CPU and mobo, preferably AMD based. I'm looking to get an XP1700 and was wondering if anyone has any experience with overclocking these, and with which mobo they work best with.

For a little more info, this machine will be basically used for extreme gaming, or possibly data crunching/mining on databases.

I'm pretty new to the whole overclicking scene, and would appreciate as much advice as you can give.

TIA.

Steve

Thanks for that Brian,

I think I've made my mind up for the mobo.

Can anyone give me any sort of pointers on the limits of overcloking with this combination?
