Ok, now the NB speed back to default (2.0 GHz), but upped the multi from x13 to x14. Result is, CPU at 2.8 GHz. All voltages at default, actually CPU is under default as it is @ 1.296v, out the box it runs at 1.316v.

I owe you guys the cinebench one, I'll leave it running tonight, and tomorrow morning before heading off to work, i'll post it up, Just don't want to wait for it

are you serious you don't know what Super PI is?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_PI

talking about Super pi, on hwbot.org, I have the 3rd fastest time of 22.4. The guys ahead of me one has 1066 ram, at the time I was at ddr2 800, now I have my super talent running at 1066, if only I had the 9850 back, and the 1st place is a dude on Single Stage Phase Cooling, 4.0 GHz. hehehhe.

I had an earlier version that didn't work neither. I forgot which one it was too. It used to lock my system when I tried to open it.

Great to know that bro, I will keep updating this as soon as I do anything new. I am still pushing the CPU higher however, just having gotten to it lately. Stay tuned for some new updates :toast:.

hey buddy, also, I dont know if you purchased the cpu yet, but if you haven't try to get your hands on a 9950 that has the 0836 DPDW stepping, those are the better ones I've seen so far.
