| So I've been keeping my P4 2.8 @ 3.5 for the last several months but tonight I got ballsy. I cranked my FSB up to 264 bringing my CPU up to a nice even 3.7GHz. So far it's been really stable. I've played Oblivion and done a few other things without so much as a hiccup! I'm pretty pleased with this old entry level Prescott chip. I think my next investment will be the Nautilus 500 watercooling system. Then my new build this winter! Is it just me or does the super pi time seem kinda slow? ![]() Guess I need to update my sig... *sigh* | E8400 @ 4.0GHz | Zalman 9700NT | Maximus II Formula | 4GB OCZ Reaper HPC | GTX260 | Corsair HX-520 | Antec 1200 | NZXT Sentry LX | RAID 0 | Vista x64 Ultimate | | E7200 @ 4.0GHz | Scythe Ninja Cu | P5W DH Deluxe | 2GB Ballistix | 7600GT | Seasonic 550HT | Antec P180B |Vista x64 ultimate | |Optiplex 755 | C2D E2180 | 4GB DDR2 | Radeon 2400 | | Latitude D830 |T7500 | 2GB DDR2 | NVS140 |15.4" | | 20" Dell LCD | 2x 19" Dell LCDs | Logitech Z-2300 | | Dual ISP Gigabit Network | |

| Nice o/c. Looks plenty stable to me. Especially if you've been playing Oblivion on it. Oblivion is extremely sensitive to overclocked rigs and instability. ![]() I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220 |
