Ok so before I go dual or quad core I want to see how far I can overclock my P4 3ghz.

It's all good experience as I'm just getting into OC'ing and I don't mind if I kill it.

Problem is I have an ASRock mobo and they are crap for OC'ing as all the voltages are locked, so far I have done a few hundred mhz but I read 1ghz is possible on air.

Also they are difficult to get, even secondhand on eBay they are no where to be found.

So..... I'm after a good brand like ASUS, Abit, Some Epox's or what have you got?

Thing is I was really after something second hand for a tenner.

Seems silly spending £60 on an old technologhy board just to play around when I can spend £60 on a C2Duo one albeit I will need the other bits.

Fair point. For a tenner you don't mind if it breaks.

I'll have a nosey matey.
