Nice clock so far Joe

Get it under that evap head - crank the volts up and show it 3ghz on each core

Hey dude you got a similar chip to my 4400:
ccbwe 0532mpm
Mine is somehow limited at 2.75 as even with taking the top off and running 5c cooler it won't clock anymore; maybe lack of voltage as my A8N SLI-P only churns out 1.5v.

I found that by running the chip at as high an FSB as possible, yielded the fastest scores, but I only have 3200 RAM so can't do more than 250 although the chip will do 10x275.
