What cpu to buy?

[f@boy]

I won a Epox 8kta2 in a contest and now I'm considering to change from Intel to Amd. But I dont know anything about Amd overclocking. Is the board any good? What cpu should I buy to get most buck for the money? I thinking about a Duron 800. Grateful for som help.
Thanx

Alot of people ask this question.....
The Duron 800 should get 1000 out of it easily.
The t-bird 800 is a little bit harder to hit 1000.
The Duron is like a porshe, but the t-bird is like a mercedes.
Got it?
The t-bird is a higher quality, and is faster @ 1gig that duron.
Hope that helps...

If youhave the money go for the t-bird. Better.

The board isn't bad, but you won't be able to get a very high FSB out of it. It is the older version of the 8KTA3.

If you have the money, go for a tbird. 750's are going for $75 on ebay and most of the cheapest suppliers. Most all the durons oc the same so if I was going duron i'd get a 700 since its just as cheap as the 600. the epox has the kt133 chipset which doesn't like much oc fsb. I just got a epox 8kta3 which has the 133a. I got 7.5x133 (1000) out of my tbird 750 without trying. I was surprised as its my first AMD. I might unlock the thing later.
