WANTED - Socket 478 Board

**Dave Hybrid** · #1 29th Dec 2007, 11:16 AM

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.

Cheers mate, thing is though everyone is charging a premium as they are rare.

This?

Feedback looks over (over 1200). Shipping is about right.

Dave have you bought a Socket 478 board yet?
I have an Abit IC7 I could sell you.It and its successors are considered the best Socket 478 overclocking boards made.
They are quite rare though so if its something really cheap you are after Im probably not your man.

Cheers mate, gone C2D now so it isn't needed, but thanks!
