ArizzX my brother PiGuy just got a 939 3800+ X2 ($35) and got it to 2800MHz right out of the box, lol. Higher than what I run all the time and apparently easier. Get one of those with an ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe board ($150-190-ish but an excellent board and KILLER overclocker) and you're set on the cheapest way to "fast." It's a good plan as long as you don't mind futureproofing the socket with AM2, which is kind of a bad choice anyway since they're doing AM2+, aren't they?
