Well i've been browsing the forums for a while now and in the past have not had too much luck with overclocking (i think my mobo is not so good).

Anyway tonight i went for it and stuck at it.

I have run orthos for 4 hours and am stable so far.
What do you think to my overclock?
The main reason for asking is that i don't know wether to get a new mobo and push for more?
And before anybody says, im not going intel!!

Here's my overclock

Don't get greedy.

That's a very nice overclock. If you're happy with the temps i'd say to leave it there. :)

I too have a 5200. I use 252x11 but I hope to go to the 12 multi with good cooling.

I did try for more but i cannot get it to boot into windows any higher.
I am wondering if a better board will be more stable.

On my board i have no way or over volting, etc.
