I am planning right now to make 3 of these and let the ppl pick the rest of the components....
I will test with my own harddrive, backup liteon DVD drive and a GF4mx agp vid card....
Common parts all from www.zipzoomfly.com
Intel P4 2.4c 800fsb (retail)= 166.00
Abit AI7 i865 mobo Retail = 121.00
Antec SOHO 1080AMG w/
430 true power PSU (3 case fans) = 115.00 + 20.00sh
1gb (2x512) Hyper X pc3500 (BH-5) = 230.00
or
512mb (2x256) Hyper X Pc3500 (BH-5) = 124.00
My goal is 3.2ghz on these system but I am only counting on 3ghz
If temps are out of line I will put in a
Zalmann 7000Cu or Al-Cu
these guys are not advanced in overclocking and the needs of the critical components....
I am thinking about charging them a premium obviously for the work it takes to test them and secure the overclock...Obviously not the cost of hat the CPU cost at the overclocked level...
What do you think I should mark it up as. They know I am overclocking them as they are excited to get 3 to 3.2ghz performance at the cost of the 166 for a 2.4.....I pretty much told them 3ghz is about break even cause the extra cost related to the higher quality ram and maybe the slightly better PSU makes up a bit..
