Default Thinking of going knee deep in DICE

I want to give this whole extreme cooling gig a shot in the upcoming month as long as my stereo system sells for a decent price and I get a job, there are some major ifs but whatever.

Ideally I want to get a socket 775 motherboard that will get me up there with real high clocks so I can get some cheap-o 10$ celeron chips and maybe some dual/quad cores

what would be the best MOBO/RAM/Dice Pot I could possible use to get this done all the while spending the elast amount of money?

a rampage extreme or a biostar t-power mobo would be pretty good.

One of the most common/popular motherboards is the Asus Commando, not sure on the ram, something with D9's, and for a pot, BartX and Duniek both make them and are on this forum as well as over at XS, there's also a few other people that make some pretty good pots.

If your curious about a specific motherboard just search it on HWbot and see what kind of numbers people are putting up.

For DICE you won't run into any cold bugs so a thermometer wouldn't really be required, it would be handy though.

LN2 however you will need one.
