first post =).... i just bought some components and need to know if the overclock i got is good.....

Shuttle AN35N Ultra motherboard
45watt mobile Athalon XP 2400+
1gig (2 x 512m) Corsair Value select pc3200
radeon ALL IN WONDER 9800PRO (with halflife2 bundled)
Thermaltake VOLCANO 11+ Xaser Edition hsf
Arctic Silver 5

im currently running 12 * 220 = 2.64ghz, 39c idle 49c after 24 hours prime95, stable, is that a good overclock? and how does my system perform compared to an athalon 64? (i got the all in wonder cause i needed the video input , am planning on building a second identicle rig to put my X800XT in, if you guys think its a good setup)

thats a pretty damn good OC, my 2400+ 45w wont do mych past 2.5Ghz, and my raid card wont take more then 2.4Ghz

you can run programs like Super PI, and Sandra to see how the CPU speed compairs to the other CPUs out there, that shoudl be equiv to a 3600+ on most things,

it would be fine, but if your building another comp, might as well just get a A64, people are getting some of thoes up over 3GHz on air
