A budget overclock system

[Jokull]

Right now I am thinking about configuring a budget system for overclocking . But my choices are only E21X0 Series. I just want to stick with those. I don’t want any other choice for now. But before buying I need to know about the difference between different E21X0 Series like 4, 6 and 8? I know that the unique clock speed is high as you mount but all three appears to overlock to 3 GHz just well with no raise in voltage. Do you anything to comment on it? Any suggestions over others please post it. Another thing is there a chief performance divergence flanked by the L2 cache of 2MB vs. 1MB on the E21X0 series?

The FSB wall in these CPUs it’s extremely optional to acquire no less than a 2160. For example in my 2140, I couldn’t find any board to catch it over FSB 375. So simply in the region of 3GHz, that possible to be close to 3.4 GHZ on an E2160 with the similar FSB wall. What is your current budget in case? Can it affordable for you on buying any series if I mention?

I am going to give you my specification in which is have successfully overclocked. The specification is also under a budget so that a normal person can afford this. I bought different parts from different online shopping sites.

• E2140 from Newegg===$75
• IP35-E refurbished from Amazon: $80
• 2GB HP (Crucial/Micron D9) PC2-5300 from thenerds.net===$11 AR
• XFX/Zalman 8600GT from Newegg===$80 AR
• EA-380 from Newegg== $20 AR

With this pleasant budget overclocker and I acquired 100 & #37.

The best and the cheap overclock system I came up was.

• Antec Solo Quiet Mini Tower Case
• Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L ATX LGA775 P35 1333FSB Motherboard
• Gigabyte GeForce 8600GT OC 600MHZ 256MB GDDR3 PCI-E Video Card
• Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 Dual Core Processor LGA775 2.0GHZ 800FSB
• Corsair 620w Modular Power Supply
• Any superior brand DDR2-800MHz RAM

This is my choice but you can change this option whenever possible. Like you can go for 9600gt graphics card and you can buy some low watt PSU also.
