Looking for Advice

[newsreader]

I want to move away from Intel to AMD. I have been looking at the DFI
Lanparty Model UTn53. I would like to know which ram and cpu would be best
suited for this board.

I do want to overclock, so can I OC Athlon 3000+ to
3400+ specs although there is more cache on the 3400+? What ram would be
best?

TIA

Well, I've got an original hammer 3000+ and an older Mb and I maxed out
the FSB at 233 for 2333MHz. Could have probably got a little more if my
FSB had settings above 233. Newer cores and boards should be easy to
overclock higher.
