Serious help needed.

Hi all,

Im planning to buy an Intel Core2Duo E4300(1.80Ghz, 2MB, 800MHz FSB),
I want to buy a decent mobo for this board within 5K for this CPU,
It should have very good overclocking fretures, and rock solid perfomence,
which mobo?

I need to buy this system by 5:30 today, so please be very fast.

Thanks in advance.

And is AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+ better then the Intel Core2Duo E4300?

This page will help you.

And AMD X2 4200 is good but since you need a processor with "very good overclocking features" go for C2D E4300 as people have overclocked it to 2.6GHz on stock cooling. There is a very low chance that an AMD can be overclocked this much.

Try NVidia 650i mobo (reviewed in chip this month) if you can get it. Its very good enthusiast's board @ 5000.

For that price you can get ASUS P5LD2

what about nvidia nforce 650i sli?
does it have good overclocking features(mention full details)
recomend mobos having this chipset
and will this chipset bottlenect the core2duo e4300's perfomence?
