Well, got this mobo, soltek sl75frn2-rl with revision c1 of nforce2 chipset. then got this 2500+ Barton. put everything together, turn it on, goes in BIOS, put fsb to 200...f10 and yes to save...now running like a 3200+ stock HSF @ 33 degree idle and 48 after +/- 30 minutes on unreal2 demo playing!

Saved a lot of money? you bet. Am I happy? you bet!
