Hi planning on getting 2800xp, could i clock it to 3200-3400 ?
should i get asus a7n8x-e duluxe, abit nf-7 2/an-7, MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR, any other similar boards £70-100. Also what fans/heatsinks for above oc, is the venus 12 good, sorry so many questions.

NF7-S and ASUS are rated as the best out of those. For overclocking people seem to prefer the NF7-S as it has more overclocking functions, the only real difference between those to is the 10/100 and 100/1000 LAN that the ASUS has and the ABIT doesnt.

e-buyer also have the DFI Lanparty B for £99 inc VAT which has a growing following (& lots of bling bling stuff )
Quickfind code 58254

You shouldn't have a problem getting XP3200 speeds plus.
Tt Venus 12 is fine, I have 1 on one of mine although it can be a bit noisy on full whack.
nForce2 boards need a good PSU & of course your RAM has to hack it too.
