How many people here have one? I bought a $25 new Shuttle 865PE board and was thinking about building myself a little system for college around it. I was looking at the 2.4 ghz Celeron D and a Zalman 7000 CU to cool it with. Please post what # Celeron and your overclock if you respond to the thread.
 
well i really dont think its all too worth it in my opinion

with the money youd be spending on that heatsink already, it really offsets the celeron's price

you would be far far better going the cheap a64 route and overclocking that even if its with the stock hsf


but the celeron d's have been averaging around 3.6ghz o/ced

still gets spanked by a a64 3000+ in most anything

The computer is not meant to be a gamer box, just light office use. Besides, my motherboard was only $25 and the processor is only $70ish. I can't get a mobo/cpu A64 combo for that price.
