I'll tell you in about an hour.

My friend has one and he loves it. What are you going to use your computer for? You may be able to get away with a "slower" CPU.

I would buy the 1.33 and run it at 1.4. Its cheaper and runs cooler.

 

[Muerto]

Why would an o/c'd 1.33 run cooler than a regular 1.4? I thought they all dissapated the same heat at the same clock speed. Or am I missing something?

I love mine. Fast and I overclocked to 1523. I have the Epox 8KTA3+.

Be sure to get a good heatsink and fan.

Your computer is going to be hot stuff..literally. Get some hardcore cooling for that thing or it'll be crazy unstable
