seriously, why in gods name are you going for a xp2100??? get a damn xp1700+ with JIUHB stepping and you get xp2600+ performnce without any major cooling!

the thing with the xp1700+ JIUHB is that its a B core and usally is a downclocked xp2600 or even better, thats why its so clockable on the DEFAULT voltage which is ONLY 1.5volts.
so getting a xp2100 over this cpu would be like throwing your money in the sea

im running my own xp1700 JIUHB at xp2600 on 1.55 volts and a shitty sink+fan that shuld handle xp1900 the most and my full load is 55c :clap: :clap: :clap:

actually with some better sink+fan you can easily clock it to like 2400mhz and more

man im getting upset when people dont search for good info before they buy

edit: ahh i saw that interman posted, good good, the xp2100 B is good too but the xp1700 is cheaper and overclocks just as good ;)

Found one of these CPUs in a local store. Now I just have to convince the wife to let me get an early father's day present

I'll keep you posted on how the OC'ing goes.
