Hi all -

I'm currently looking into getting a Duron and mobo, planning in advance to be overclocking it. I've read up on the topic, know the changes that need to be made to the Duron, etc.

Now, however, I'm looking into actually BUYING the materials.

It seems to me that the IDEA behind OCZ is good - selling pretested overclocked CPUs -- spares me the worry of accidentally frying my own chip when I first try it. However, I've read here and elsewhere that they used to be quite shady -- have they gotten better?

If not, is there anyplace reputable that sells pretested overclocked CPUs? Or should I just give up and buy the chip and do it myself?

Thanks!
Andrew

i don't think they are good now. look at pcnut.com its top notch. bit expensive than most.
