OK guys I have been reading all I could about OC'ing and need some advice.i have decided to get the kt7a raid mobo but the processor still evades me,I can get the 850 duron 3d with the board or the t-bird seperatley.my question is which one is the better performer oc'ed for video performance?I have read the differences but cant decide which is best for games.will I need a more expensive video card for the t bird?does anyone have what they consider an ideal setup for this mobo?right now I have a Packard hell computer with a 366 celeron but have no upgrade options.the onboard video works pretty good,I am assuming because of the L2 cache.i am assuming the duron is a lot like the Celeron(only better)in this respect.tyhe long and short of it is I want to spend the least I can for the best performance I can get.any help would be appreciated,as I am about to bust to get started.i will be buying tomorrow,thanks

the tbird is a better chip all around you can pick up a 1ghz tbird online for about 175.00 pretty good deal
