1700 Front Side Bus????
Honestly, 65 is plenty... I don't push past 60.

Just plug everything into the 120V outlet..
btw Kevin Nelson, which CPU are we talking about?
No, don't push the memory... better to dial it back and push the CPU instead.

What kind of PSU are you running, and what did it set you back?

AMD chips generally struggle to match Intel when it comes to overclocking..
Even the top-tier AMD isn't outperforming an E4500 @ 3.3GHz in Super Pi.

And don't even get me started on the Intel Core 2 Duo E8xxx series...

Would anyone mind actually reading the sticky tutorial before jumping in here to ask about overclocking?

An HD3870 could handle it too.
At least in 3DMark... ran it on two identical rigs with nothing but a GPU swap, and the difference was only about 20 to 70 points.

You might squeeze a few hundred MHz more out of the processor..

In my opinion, it’s just not worth the hassle..

x1950gt / hd4650
hd4550 / 2600xt / hd3650
Roughly... the hd 4650 is decent enough, though I haven't come across a comparison against older cards like the x1950gt

Better for an HD3650... is that PCIe card of yours

I’m leaning more towards the HD 4530. It looks interesting... plus, I'd still have enough left over to pick up another hard drive.

Just read a review... with active cooling, temps hit 80 degrees under load..

Can I get a link? I can't seem to find the passive one...

Agreed... LC power supplies are overrated...
at that resolution, you'll be stuck running most titles on medium settings... maybe even cod 2 on max...

It’s failing because it’s in the same league as Codegen or MS Industrial—basically just overpriced scrap metal. It puts out decent juice on the 3.3V and 5V rails, which modern rigs don't even touch, but the 12V rail is pathetic.
For instance, an EVGA 400 W only delivers about 340W on the 12V line... just some food for thought.

You could go with the HD3870, but then that power supply starts looking pretty sketchy to me...
