E4300 and 650i overclocking

http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814130062
Bench mark close to but not quite as fast as GTS8800.
I know, I know, benchmarks aren't real world, but how are you going to
compare without spending a lot of money?

How does overclocking with an E4300 and a 650i nVidia chipset
motherboard
strike you?

I know that Asus with it's P5N series has some fanless cooling
soulutions that I have read about but never actually have seen in
action. Most of the folks who go with the nVidia do so for support of
SLI, nVidia's version of the ATI Crossfire. I see much more about it on
the gaming sites than the more basic productivity sites.........But that
ain't all bad if you know what I mean....... Today's games require
massive horsepower, both from the CPU and GPU. Personally, I have no
experience with nVidia chipsets on the Intel platform, but did have one
on an AMD a few years ago and had no issues whatsoever. I wouldn't
hesitate going that route myself if I wanted support for SLI, but would
probably go the tried and true I965/975 route since I have no plans on
spending $800-$1000 for a couple of SLI video cards.......:-).

Actually, you can spend $220 on a pair of cards to run in SLI and get the
frame rates of a single $400 - $500 card.

PS: ATI's Crossfire is a version of nVidia's SLI.
