I would have put this in the extreme cooling forum, but it's not really about my cooling solution.
I've been using an Athlon 64 FX-53 @~2.8GHz on a vapochill LS for just about a year now. It's fairly fast, but I can't get the damn X2 off my mind. I used to use a dual Athlon MP 2100 setup and haven't used anything that could multitask like that system yet. I use my system for some games, video encoding, and I also use Lightwave 3D and Photoshop.
So, here's what I need to know:
1. What X2 will most likely overclock the highest, preferably with the Toledo core? I understand the "your mileage may vary" clause.
2. What powersupply should I get? I was looking at the PCP&C 510W Turbo Cool SLI, but I just want the best for overclocking.
3. What motherboard with SLI is overclocking the best right now? Still the DFI SLI-DR?
4. RAM? I have 2x512MB PC3200 Crucial Ballistix, they're okay, but I'd like to get the best there is for overclocking.
Thanks all.
