Heya guys,
I'm looking to put together a new machine for myself, mainly for gaming. I'd, naturally, wnat to upgrade it to its max and I'm looking for a motherboard that'd help me do that. So far I've heard good things about the MSI K8N Neo Platinum (http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.html?i=2036&p=6) and I know that the new Nforce 3 250 mobos are out.
The questions I have are:
1) What's the best overclocker out right now in the Nforce3 250 flavor?
2) I'm probably going to get an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ DTR, would you recommend this? I know that heatsink contact is an issue and I was wondering if anyone know a stock heatsink, capable of dissipating the extra heat from overclocking, that I'd be able to use
3) Would you recommend I go the DTR route to begin with?
Thanks a lot!!!
