Best clock I managed on mine is the Prescot 660 3.6Ghz @ 4.7Ghz.
Temps forced me to back off down to 4.3 and I had to disable HT of course ( Cant stand the FAKE dual core ) - I did aim to hit 300FSB but temps were seriously scary and I was on Air too
And the best speed is 3.5 on the E6300
Now, if I could get 500FSB on the Prescot, that would be interesting I recon...
If you can find me any DDR1 ram that will run 330 HTT 1:1, or any that will run 318 HTT 1:1 Orthos stable; i'll be opening my wallet straight away
In fact things have changed a bit since those screenies were done. I'm actually running with 4 sticks of 512 now. 2x512 OCZ 4800 Plat's and 2x512 G-Skill 4800:
Off course 2t and on the 166 divider, but i had the ram anyway, so thought "why not" It saves any more expenditure until the Quad's are released.
thanks - that x2 overclock I did was the absolute limit with the motherboard and not the CPU as my HTT can only go upto 800MHz (two old socket 939 nforce3 250gb mobos) I reckon on a better mobo that allows 1000MHz HTT it would do much better especially if I can up the vcore to more than 1.7v.
At the moment Im stuck as when I set the HTT multiplier to 2x the system hangs on POST screen or simply just doesn't POST.
not stable at all, but increasing voltage to where its stable (1.5v) makes core 1 go over 70c in orthos. running at 2.92ghz for everyday, at stock voltage, 80mhz higher and need 1.5v, go figure...

it gets better, another 100mhz, another second. cpu still has room, but i have to move down to the next divider or loosen timings, cause my ram hits a brick wall at 260.
now if only those speeds were fully stable...
i wish i had some bh5 or tccd to test it with, but i'm using big clunky 1 gig sticks, infineon ce5. for real life, i certainly want 2 gigs, but it would be able to shave off another half second or so with low latency ram. for 1 gig sticks, my ram is good, superpi stable up to 260 with 3-3-2-8 timings.
