Re: [OT] any overclocking experts around?

["Simon Rafferty" <simonr@xxxxxxx>]

The reason I said not to buy it, and I checked with my friend at
overclockers, is only the deluxe revision of that board will take the 4400.
In your original email that is the board that you listed
so best performing is what I want (running on an Asus P4C800
with P4 3.4C)

so I assumed the standard revision not the deluxe, whixh will take the 4400
as compared to the 4000
