Hi everyone, I am looking to build a mini-pc system (e.g. Shuttle) using the much hyped and very overclockable Pentium D 805 as the processor. Condering the following contraints, I would like to get advice from all you pros on the best configuration:
* MUST use the Intel Pentium D 805
* MUST use air-cooling, no water cooling, etc.
* MUST be desktop-type case
* Would like to keep component price low, no reused parts available
* Need a stable system
What main components (i.e. barebone, memory) should I use? I see Shuttle, AOpen, etc. has several LPGA 775 based systems but will they allow for overclocking the 805? Hoping to get like 3.4-3.6 GHz on this system while keeping it stable - has anyone out there done this yet?
Thanks for any advice!
