Mark,

This is the board I have. I am using two Celeron 300A's overclocked to 450
(conservative but very stable as I do not have to raise the voltage at this
speed.) I have had zero problems with  the board or the overclocked celerons
(the heatsink and fans are the key here, and I leave my case open.)

I have yet to do testing on TS2K to see how parallelizing (Multithreaded) it
is. From a birds-eye view, it looks like it is not doing a very good job.
However, NT, and specifically, the TCP/IP stack, is very likely benefiting
from the daul processors, probably leavnig more time for the other CPU to do
TS2K (or TS4) related stuff.

I highly recommend this set-up, but be careful where you get your 300A's and
the coolers if you are going to build it youselves.

Regards,

Ivan
