Ok, just tried to run 32m pi test which wouldn't even start, it just comes up with some error, all made up of bar/pipe symbols!danza said:
I tried 16m pi, which ran but i'm pretty sure it's slow as it did 23 iterations and took 14m21s, with all programs closed down. The 20th iteration was 12m09s, if that makes any difference.
What ive managed to test up to, will see if this can do anymore 
[IGNORE THE PSU RAILS, IT READS WRONG!!]
Its SuperPI 32mb stable and OCCT stable, will try Prime overnight but for now im going to see what i can get out of it
[ 2.8GHZ , 315*9 , 1.52Vcore (in bios) ]

ok got it stable in two different senarious. Its ok when
148 @ 2900mhz
ram - 2.5-2-2-5 @ 211mhz
or
148 @ 2981mhz
ram - 2.5-3-3-6 @ 271mhz
both get the same super pi score give or take 1s. Which one of those 2 should i use? Not sure whether itmakes a difference in games or anything

try pi 32 meg. that's a good indication of decent stability. And try playing an intensive game for an hour or so.
Prime isn't the be all and end all, although i suppose if you're prime stable then nothing can hurt you

This is as good as I'm getting with my 146:
This is a 146 on an Asus A8N-SLi Premium. I have vcore at 1.55 and vdimm at 2.8, but if I try HTT: 260 the system hangs at the first bios boot screen. My memory is OCZ 2gb (2 x 1gb) PC3200 Performance Series. Can anyone offer some suggestions?

super pi is a good one for testing overclock stability. But many people here also run the torture test option in PRIME 95.

Yep, already using HTT multiplier of 3. I've basically set pretty much everything I can think of. I've tried setting my memory timings manually, setting it to 2t and with my mems default timings of 3-3-3-8, but still unable to go over 2.5ghz :/
