Have got a new case (antec p180), which does an excellent job at keep everything cool. Normal load CPU temp is under 40degrees, and under gaming its under 50 degrees. Therefore I think I will overclock this cpu to try and push some more work from it.
I have a DFI Lanparty UT Ultra-D motherboard and have been told this is good for clocking. However my weakest link is my memory, I have 2x 512MB unmatched Crucial ram.
What speeds have you got your 3500+ to? And what settings are best to use?

Any help appreciated, cheers.
 
Running 11 x 220 (2429) atm with my ram divider set at 166 mhz.
Everything seems to run ok, it up'd my 3dmark 06 score a fair bit and runs under 40 degrees idle.
