 | MicroATX motherboards are unfortunately often less overclockable than ATX boards
and are partially a nightmare regarding the overclock options.
The Test of the current Foxconn WinFast MCP61SM2MA-ERS2H motherboard will clarify,
whether this inexpensive board is an exception.
Moreover the Review shows, whether the integrated GF6100 onBoard graphics solution
is fast enough for current 3D games and if the board also has enough features
to satisfy power users.

 | G.Skill has launched the new F2-6400CL4D-2GBPK 2048MB DDR2-800 memory kit,
which already represents a nice eye-catcher with the packing.
Because the two 1GB memory modules with the azure heat spreader are delivered
in a wooden box and are thus optimally protected against possible damages.
But let us see if a complex packing help us to get higher overclocking results ...

 | Two 16x PCI express Slots, four DDR2-800 Slots up to 8 GB memory, six S-ATA II ports,
ten USB 2.0 ports, two 1 Gigabit LAN connectors and wonderful OC features
is not my list of wishes for Christmas, but rather the excellent equipment
of the new Foxconn C51XEM2AA-8EKRS2H Socket AM2 motherboard.
Without anticipating the result, this Socket AM2 board is a dream for overclocker,
because this mainboard has as many OC options, that it would be possible to write
dozens of OC guides.
And overclocking an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ processor to 3000 MHz is really nice ... ;)

I don't hold any responsibility for any damage caused by overclocking.
There is always a risk of damaging your hardware.
And your warranty becomes void if you overclock something.
