    8500 le = 250/250

    8500 = 275/275

    it varies

    most can get 315/315

    it helps to have the good 3.3ns bga ram on board, then you may be able to get to 325 memory

    as for the core if you can cool it extra well you may get it to 325, but usually around 315

    I take it you mean a flat panel and not just flat screen? A lot of LCDs have both analog and DVI connectors...trouble is, they tend to be in the 600+ price range.
