I have this mobo atm. Im going to get watercooling and i want to know if this mobo has half decent ocing ability? do i need change it or is it ok?

Believe it or not, if you volt mod it, it's the best NF2 motherboard you can get.

I had my mobile 2500 running at 2.7Ghz on my old boy before I blew it up (got an Abit NF7-S now)

If your gonna be running it in stock form, then you'll more than likely have trouble attaining FSB speeds over 210 Mhz, and should go for the NF7-S for overclocking from the box (DFI boards are recommended, but are simply not reliable, although the customer service is excellent)

Whats the volt mod? and did u fuck ure motherbaord when u blew ure processor and anything else? and where can i buy this abit mobo from?

AFAIK it's just upping the voltage on the chip, which can be achieved via the BIOS.

As for where to get the ABIT motherboard from, surely from the same place the ASUS would come from? I'm thinking Aria?

If you're willing to do the work then the DFI Inifinity will get you the best overclocks but you will have to do volt mods to most of it, the BIOS gets corrupted very easily and it's not too stable generally.

The Abit is much easier to use and overclock without the hassel. As to where to buy it, you can probably get it from every online computer shop.
