I don't have any advice on the OS thing but would REALLY like to know
how fast you can overclock that processor.
With MSI's boards, you can do this pretty easily through the BIOS. Also,
they have some decent tools for detecting processor speed on their Web
site.
Let me know if you choose to do this. As with all AMD products, the
stated speed for the processor is really just for warranty purposes.

Subject: New computer parts!
So...I got new computer parts in today.
I'll be performing the upgrade this afternoon.
Its been..about four years since my last upgrade. I'm going to try to
fit this all into my old case that had an Athlon Thunderbird 1.2Ghz
processor/MB combo before.
I'm installing : MSI K8T Neo motherboard.
AThlon 64 3.2Ghz processor.
OCZ Dual whatever PC3200 RAM, two 256 DIMMS.
Keeping three hard disks, CDRW, modem , network card, and Ti4400
Graphics card.
Anything I should look out for? I'm a bit nervous.
The system also currently has Windows 2K on it. I want to upgrade that
to Windows XP. Should I do this before, or after the new hardware is
installed?
