Been away from all this for a while and need your advice on best value for OC'ing
Moving up from a C2D e4300 oc'd to 3.5 on Gigabyte P965 -DS3 mobo
Building a new system . . . don't need the best - just the best value - I do music - any extra power would be useful for the hungry audio plugins.
wanna keep it under 300 for mobo+CPU+cooler+4GB ram
Core i7 looks nice but not willing to pay for pricey mobo and ram . .
E8400 looked good, but not sure between that or C2Quad or Phenom II . . .
Please suggest a cpu+mobo+cooler around 250 that is great for oc
Thanks
