    I had the Neo-2 FIS2R (now deceased) and it ran stable at 250Mhz FSB for nigh on 2 years, and it was rock solid, so the answer from me is, good enough .

    if anyone wants one there here on ebay
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1
    not bad for only £29.99 inc vat
    no driver or anything bundled thought but they would make good servers or cheap boxes
