Hi. Just after a bit of advice if anyone can help.
I'm buying myself a new system on a limited budget. I had decided on an E6400 and an Asus P5B board cos a recently read an overclocking review that said if you overclock it to 2.88 it gives great performance and can still be cooled under an ordinary heat sink and fan no problem.
So is this true? And secondly because of my tight budget if i want to overclock like this can i do it using cheap ram for now or do i have to have Corsair or other such fast RAM?
Oh yeah as far as the board goes is the ASUS P5B-E LGA 775 Intel P965 ok or do i want the ASUS P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail?
Finally i can't afford to change my graphics card yet so will my old NVIDEA N6600 run on this ok for now?
Many thanks,
Panface.
