I have bought 6 or 7 from different suppliers. A few suppliers will guarentee versions (if you can get the DLT3C runs at 1.5v runs cooler good for 24x7). Some people are running these at 2500hmz - I would not recomend this for chess unless you are willing to spend silly money on cooling (not good value for money imho). Paired with something like Abit NF7 all adjustements are in the BIOS. Some decent memory e.g. Twinmos 3200 (winbond) cheap but decent (running at 6222 timings at 200fsb) You can choose the HD For chess graphics is not important so you can save some money here. Just a thought Shaun
