Final Choice

[GrimReaper23]

OK well after serious states of confusion I'm asking you guys to pull through with this 1 more time. I Finally decided to wait and save up well I need to know a good pci-express Motherboard socket 939 for about 100.00 USD and I'm going to get the Venice core 3500 + soket 939 with a zalman Heatsink and I was wondering what is a good mobo. Also is it true that it can overclock up to 1.0 GHZ on stock vcore. So it'll be at 3.0 GHZ how much would that be Intel wise. I really glad I found this site and thankyou guys for not getting Pissed off at all my posts.

3.0ghz is faster than the FX-55...intel processors really cant go that high on stock speeds. me thinks about p4 4.0-4.2 ghz would be equivalent to a 3.0ghz venice.

alright thank you but do you know anything about my Mobo dilemma?

Your far off, you need a non exitant cpu like a 5.0ghz to beat it out really

Yea I was about to say isn't it like a 4.0 to beat out the fx-55 My best guess is about a 4.3 or so

an intel can't beat a FX-55 (2.8ghz) in fps until reaching 5.5ghz i think

also, the best (and only) choice would be the DFI lanparty ultra-d

out of the box (only with good ram), it can reach a 1ghz OC easily (not sure if this can be done on stock voltage, but on g skill LA's, i wouldn't doubt it

AMD > intel anyday (coming from an amd fanboy that hasn't used anything but amd since the 200mhz days)

what ram are you gonna use?

once I get the money I was thinking about twinmos 1 GB which I heard was awsome that Nubius posted that 512 x2 pack 101 USD Or some OCZ 512

 

[diabloII]

yea, if you're on a tight budget, then probably either the twinmos or 512 OCZ rev2's will be best

 

[GrimReaper23]

well what do you think is the best if I got up to 200 USD?

About the CPU, you should be able to get it to higher speeds easily on stock cooling and Vcore, maybe not a full Ghz but maybe .5 or .6 Ghz wit stock vcore.
