wel i have got a juihb 1700 which ran at 2.2ghz for ages but now seems to
throw up a lot of errors at that speed, unfirtunately i already got a barton
3200 now, havent tried to overclock it yet (i think its locked) but i think
i may take the fsb up seeing as ive got some monster cooling in the case
(not water cooled yet)
