I think so, and I hope so! Or I will old fashioned by the end of the year! Hehehehehehehe 😉
But if you like to stay on TOP this will probably last only 6 months.

By the way, 1 more question.

Once I`ve put this together, what`s the way to do it?

1: install winXP
2:setup BIOS

or

1: setup BIOS
2: installwinXP

And the cd that comes with the mainboard, do you actually need it???

HA!, yeah right, you'll get the upgrade urge far before the 2 year mark comes around 😛.

Setup BIOS
Install XP

Dont overclock untill XP is installed though, you could get a bad installation if the OC is no good.

 

[Sevenhunt]

yeah, you`re right

the urge will come much faster.

No oclock at first it is, and the pc2700 ddr, can I set it at 4:5??
