That's a lovely overclock mate, well done. I sort of wish i'd gone for a 146 myself.

I've just managed to get a 2.6GHz stable out of a 144 Opteron, first overclock. Tis a nice overclock that, oh so nearly 900MHz hehe.

personally i would prime that. just because it can do a 32mb superpi (not exactly hard im afraid) and plays your games, doesnt meant its stable and therefore not a legitimate overclock 
. Of course this is just my humble opinion, congrats on 2.9 tho

Got my 144 up to 2865mhz prime stable on 1.52v. Don't want to put more volts through it but 2.9ghz would be nice.
These opterons remind me of the tbred b 1700's.

got my 146 cabye straight up to 3ghz the day i got it primed all nite too I actually built a whole new rig round it (epox mobo, bh.5 ram, 680/680 x1800xl etc). managed to get 9480 3dmark05 out of it. Tbh though i was quite underwhelmed by the whole experience. Didn't notice that much difference to my 2.4ghz 3400+ system so i ended up selling.
Btw priming is a good idea....just leave it on overnight if you can't be bothered.
