    I want to buy a computer off ebay... it looks good and have good reviews but can this computer be overclocked this much? I mean it went from 2.4 GHz to 3.4 GHz. Dont you need like at least liquid cooling to overclock that much? heres the specs...

    ive seen people go to 4ghz on fan cooling..the cores will run hot but it should be fine on 3.4..ask him what the core temps are but it should be fine..how much are you getting it for?

    It's not good, that power supply will go bang within a few months, probably destroying the rest of the system. It also has an old motherboard, and not a particularly good one either.
