4200 overclocking potential

[bodybag]

Hi

I have been out of the game for a while now, currently on a 3700. Just ordered a 4200 from O/C ( nice price!!!! competitors wanted 140! ) what are the overclocking possibilities on this chip.

I know every chip is not the same but some info from u guys/gals would be helpful. Oh forgot to mention I have a MSI diamond mobo with 4400(1gb) corsair memory.


thanks

You'd probably be able to clock it to 2.5-2.9GHz with any luck.

Any particular stepping codes to look out for?

I received a 4200 from OcUK yesterday. Its' stepping is LDBFE 0633 CPMW.

Have it running at 2.53ghz / 230x11 / 1.35v for now. I did have it at 2.75ghz / 250x11 / 1.425v yesterday, but the SP2004 load temps were too high for my liking so I've clocked it back.
