Hi,

Would I be able to overclock an E6300, and by how much with this setup:

ASRock 775DUAL-VISTA MOBO
2 x 512mb PC2700
AGP Radeon X850 Pro
380watt Antec Earthwatts

As I have never done this before what do I need to do, step by step and by how much would it decrease the life of the CPU?

Thanks for all your help in advance :)
 
I just bought this PSU as a replacement for an older one.

That MOBO lets me use my current AGP card... I could get some different DDR2 RAM though I supose, Do you know of any MOBOs that take AGP, LGA775 and DDR2 (DDR) RAM?

Thanks :)
 
Not sure how well that board will overclock. Also, with that RAM, it's not going to help. You need to think about getting DDR2 RAM to be honest...
 
Oh right, Sure.

Do you know of any LGA775, AGP x 8 DDR2 boards?

Thanks.

I don't think there is another board out there like that frankenstein asrock.. not that i'm dissing it. I happen to like it. I dunno about the overclockability of that board but these guys are right.. ddr1 will hold you back a bit. It seems like your deadset so just be persistant.. ocing is easy once you get the hang of it. :)
 
That PSU will be fine, its probably better than mot cheap 500 watt psu's.

Ok, Thanks for the help :D

lol, It is a bit of a mish-matched monster isn't it.

Well, I think I'll get it and keep the DDR untill I get some more monet after buying it and buy 2GB off DDR2 :D
