2600 + and ocing

[Chunkee]

I have a couple really fast 2100 tbreds week 249 and 302...each hits 2.4ghz on air cooling. They smoke.

I am getting a couple of 2600+, but dont know much about them. Do they come unlocked like the 2100+?

How well do these overclock?

thanks

They won't overclock any better than the XP2100's... in fact you'd be hard pressed to find something that overclocks that well... if you're going to get a new CPU, I'd go with XP2500's... almost guaranteed 2.2 Ghz, plus you get extra cache which increases performance even more... but honestly, a 2.4 ghz T-bred is probably faster than a 2.2 Ghz Barton. So either get XP2500's, or stick with that you got.
