The only one I know around here who has a 2800+ barton is rithemking and while he would love to tell you that it is a good overclocker, he can't because his Soyo board won't let him, LOL!!! From what I hear, the 2800+ barton is a decent to good overclocker. Check <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.cpudatabase.com/CPUdb/">this</a> site out. Just select the cpu type you want (the 2800+ Barton is listed toward the bottom) and press the button. The 1700+ is a great overclocker. Howard BAM! has gotten his up to 2.42 GHz!!!

LOL! Yeah, as soon as I get my Abit NF7-S back I will attempt an OC on the 2800+Barton. Damn SOYO VIA tech! LOL! I'll let you know what I get out of mine. Dean was getting some decent OCs on his 2500+ Barton, but the 1700+JIUHB is still a better value overclocker.
