Help me with my GF's computer. I'm trying to build her a MicroATX P4-1.8A. Only problem is most of the major boards from Asus/Gigabyte etc. only seem to have vcore adjustments available on their full-size mobos, but not on their microatx versions. Does anyone know of a good mATX mobo that's o/c friendly with vcore adjustments? She wants micro ATX since she wants a small computer, but doesn't want to pay the premium for Shuttle's SFF pc's. Thanks in advance.
 
I'm not so sure overclocking your processor in a micro ATX case is such a good idea anyway. The small space of a mATX case with the added heat of an overclocked processor could cause a lot of overheating problems. I think you are going to have to choose between a small non-oc PC or a larger tower with room to overclock.
 
You know, I really don't think O/C and Girlfriend belong in the same sentence.

If you really wanna do yourself a favor, get an A7N266-VM and a cheap AthlonXP. Should be cheaper and fast enough.
