Poll: Is the 2500+ the last great overclocker of the 32-bit Athlon platform?

[SickBeast]

Also, is it worth upgrading my 1700+ chips that do 2000 and 2100mhz respectively?

if I could afford it I would upgrade all my 1600+,1700+ and 2100+s to the 2500+ Barton

Yes to the poll question. I wouldn't upgrade if my chip did 2000MHz already, which it does. Therefore I'm not going to upgrade. Also, the Bartons should come down in price even more as the A64 line is better established. Peace.

The applebreds are looking like excellent buys, for 40 bucks and an oc average much higher than your average 1700+. Most so far are hitting over 2.2 and you can enable the extra cache. Not bad at all.
