I'm looking for the best value components to use in an "easy" and "safe" OC scenario. This has probably been answered 1000 times, but the more I read the more I can't decide.
Some say E7200 some say Q6600
I have no OC'ing experience (obviously) so I'm looking for a mobo that makes it easy and gives me the greatest margin of performance to cost.
So could I score an extra 800mhz out of the E7200 fairly easy "out of the box"? I don't want to run a rig that I will have to constantly watch temp's adjust clock settings, etc etc. I'm also not looking for bring bleeding edge performance. Simply buy low and tune it up to get better value.
