How good is the 3.2c cpu?

[Mijae]

I currently have a 2.4c and I want to upgrade.

Should I go with 3.2c or 3.2e?

I probably wont try overclocking because I dont have a good cooling solution for the cpu, yet.

2.4c's can easily do 3.2 on stock cooling.

what motherboard do you have?

After reading some threads I guess I could just oc my 2.4c to 3.2 and use the money to get better ram.

I have a p4p800 with 2x256 ddr400 hyperX.

try doing it without raising the voltage first.

The right ram makes all the difference. Although you can run your memory divider at another setting thus putting your ram back into spec.

Most 2.4C will easily do 3 ghz + on stock volts. The performance upgrade, if any, won't be worth your money.
