After that, it's memory dividers. Lotsa Fun!

Quality of hardware is paramount.

When you've achieved your 24/7 OC, you may run into problems with your onboard peripherals, (NIC, Storage) etc.

I recommend reading and researching the hardware, and people's X-Periences! (forums) IE: No Particuliar Order

i) X-treme Systems: X-tremely crazy about pushing hardware to the limit!
ii) Hardop: Not quite as
iii) HardwareCanucks:
iv) Ncix: Good support from most of the regulars, once again, watch out for the nuts!

Definition of a Nut: Someone who takes the latest and greatest hardware, and reduces it to a smouldering mound of silicone in under 24 hours!:doh:
Hahahaha thanks for the info
