Im not sure I understand your question, but I just went into my bios set my setting to 12x200 @ 1.70vcore, tested for stability and I'm 100% stable at 2.4GHz.
Since you have a stock cooling, I wont suggest to avoid any overclocking, you'll fry your CPU.
I paid only about 70 dollars for my Barton 2500 that rapes P4 3.06GHz in every benchmark I ran, not bad for 70 dollars :tongue3

As for the game, it runs extremly smooth on 1280x1200 4xaa 4xaf! never drops below 40FPS, which is pretty damn good for a damn beta :)
Im sure the final game will not drop below 60's.

Those are my specs to those who wanna know;

Asus A7N8X Deluxe revision 2.00
Barton 2500 @ 2.4GHz
Corsair XMS DDR400 512
Radeon 9700 pro overclocked
60+60GB HD

all custom built by me :)

Hey dude, I'm done posting pics, I promise
But the thing is that this game is so in' amazing it keeps surprising me, and impressing me like no game ever did before, and this is just an unfinished beta or whatever.

About the arrest, I hope its true and if it is I'll be one of the most happiest guys in the world!
Valve did bull us, but they did not deserve this :mad:

maye he means the actual single player, which is not all there in this beta that got released. if you want to talk about the engine, models, textures, and sounds, then yeah it is awsome :)

Look, why ruin your experience by playing an unfinished version? Wait like the rest of us for the REAL FINISHED version, Valve won't let us down, they promised me ;)
