X2 Overclocking

[King_Boru]

Looking to upgrade from a single core to dual core. Thinking about the X2 3800+. What is the average overclock people are hitting with good air on these?

Also looking at the Opteron 165 (If I can find somewhere to get them).

Not interested in £250+ cpu's. Always go for bang per buck.

Any recomendations?

Cheers,

King.

I couldnt be arsed to spend the extra £££ on a 170 Opty. Just got a 3800 in the end.

It arrived today at work stepping is as follows:

LDBHE 0601VPMW

Hope its ok, just looking at 2.4 - 2.5 speeds really. When I get some watercooling Ill proberbly go higher.
