    if you got the money go for it.

    i'd invest in a good cooler for the cpu though

    This which needs a fan to go with it

    This
    which is what i have on my 3ghz

    well they are good if your not planning to watercool/vapochill etc etc

    if your planning overclocking get faster ram like ddr466/500

    i never overclocked before so i think ill leave well enough alone, was looking at them watercool kits on hitide.ie they were around €240 but there is no need for them if iam not overclocking right.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    Even with the bog standard stock cooler, you can overclock the FSB by up to 25%, giving you a 4 GHz processor

    Make sure that you buy good quality memory >= PC4000 DDR

    It's a sin not to overclock a P4c :)
