I installed the K8 driver and it seemed to level out.

Thanks im meanign the names of the actual programs that ppl are using to get the reults topitoff not how to put the results on here.
I cant seem to use motherboard monitor as it doesnt list my motherboard
Epox EP-9NPAJ SLi nForce4 SLi (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard (MB-050-EP)
Im just trying ot get used to overlcocking first , never done it b4 and dont really no hwo but ill try.

wtf smartguardian says my cpu temp is 76 degrees lol but speed fan says
temp 1 29 temp 2 32 temp 3 -48 HD0 34 temp 22
temp 1 29 temp 2 32 temp 3 -48 HD0 34 temp 22

Thanks for the comments guys.
The stepping is CABNE 0530APMW, one of the early ones that I managed to snatch away from the states. I was very lucky to get my hands on one of these at the time, luckily back then the Opteron craze had not reached its height.
I hope to bring more results within the next few days, although I have uni exams looming so it may not be until next week. I also need a decent graphics card before I can see about getting some decent 3Dmark scores as I’m currently using a 64mb PCI card.

Firstly, hat's off to Kesnel superb results, kinda puts the rest of my post into perspective!
Started to push on with the o/c tonight after removing the opty IHS last night and fitting the Akasa evo120.
As Tatts suggested the cpu still needs the same higher voltages to reach higher clocks but with much lower temps than before which means the o/c's are now stable,which is exactly the result I was looking for with the changes. I really can not praise this Akasa cooler highly enough, it is superb. I am still pushing on with the o/cing as 3ghz is now 35 mins into sp2004 with a temp of 48c @ 1.612v (bios). Once it goes past 52c I will stop pushing until I get agood water cooling setup. Posted below super pi times @ 3ghz except the 32mb (2900mhz) which I have not yet had time to run @3ghz as I wanted to get prime underway.

The 1.728v looks a bit extreme but it's a fantastic result though.

The bios reads 1.75v, so it's more likely to be around 1.75v/1.76v actual. I'm using phase though so it's acceptable. Temps are around -11c idle and 5-6c on load, so it's getting really toasty. I'd probably be able to stay sub zero if I was gased with r507, but I've still got stock r404 in my Mach II.

That's ok then.
