I love this line..
"Anyone can buy a Xeon motherboard and run it at stock speeds,
but few dare (or are daft enough) to overclock
such an expensive combination"
Yeah, lol, I'm one of them.
Asus PC-DL Deluxe.
2xCPU's = 2.66 GHz Running @ 3.2 GHz
Mixed Ram.
PC2100 and PC2700 1GB in all.
All four of my DIMMS are full.
That's running @ PC3200 Speeds.
Anyways, ty for the links.
Denny. ;-)
