Hi guys,

once again I need your help.

Since my ASUS P4T-E died :mad: by overvoltage during the last thunderstorm :cry: , I bought a new cheapo board to run my good ol´ RAMBUS and P4 1.6A.

The board doesn´t OC well (MSI 6545), so I buy a new setup and will take the 1.6A as backup!

In the range of about 200 Euros - what should I buy? I´ve heard the Barton 2600+ OC´s very well?! Which board and ram should I buy with it? Or another CPU and not the Barton 2600+?

Here in Germany there´s a offer in ebay (new and with warranty):
AS Rock K7S8X REV.3.0
+ AMD XP 2600+
+ ARCTIC Copper 2 Rev2.0 *17db
+ 512MB PC400 DDR brandmemory

all together for 200 Euros.

What do you think?
