hello iv just started overcloking my current computer, iv managed to get the fsb to 300mhz but im unsure as to what to expect, this is my current setup

E6400 conroe
965p d34
corsair 6400c4 2gb
hd2900 pro

i was hoping i could get the fsb to 400 so that the ram would be running synchronous 1:1 although im not sure if this is possible with air cooling

Should be able to get ~3.3ghz on air.

Well I am at 3.2 just now on a IP35 with an E6400, 8*400. I've upped the core(s) to 1.35V, its been priming for days solid now so would presume its stable. Temps of 57 under load are not grrrrreat though. I can get it to post at 3.3 (8*413) but it crashes after a while in Prime. :/

3.2 should be a doddle though.

Are you still using the stock cooler? Might be a bit less with it.

I have E6400 B2
P5B
2 x 512MB Ballistix DDR2 5300
425 x 8 = 3400

AF7 Pro

Dram, vcore & memvolts set to auto

vcore reads 1.520 in BIOS 1.5v in CPUz

Core temp & TAT = 57C (ambient 24C)

runs BOINC 24/7 100% loading both cores.

think it will go higher but getting a bit toasty.
