Had the chip since yesturday evening installed in my system. I have totally taken my time with this one - no rushing what-so-ever.

Currently @ 2.4Ghz (200x12) @ 1.65v Stable.

Other info:
8RDA+
VDD: 1.8
Vcore: 1.65
Vmem: 2.7

Watercooled CPU & NB.

Looking good for a change (for me anyway)

What do you think? Think it'll go any further? I have around 220fsb to play with due to this TwinMOS, and whatever multi's?

C0ol, that looks like a very nice oc for 1.65v. :) Try pushing it a little more and up the juice a little if you have to. Hard to say what it will do, but you probably have at least another 100mhz in it.

Well done C0ol still testing mine so I'll have to let you know (apart from its an SPWM) where'd you get yours from??

This CPU was from CPUCity.co.uk :)

Going to give it some more soon when my water temp goes down :)

Keep going m8. Mine 0308 XPMW did 2600Mhz on air. I am building my watercooling today so I think 2800 should be easy to get

Backed off to 2400Mhz at the moment, as i have found a problem with my PSU (Cheap Q-TEC)
When the system is underload, the voltages fluctuate too much for comfort, so 2400Mhz will do me nicley untill i get a new PSU.

Any recommendations? Don't need 500w+ just something around the 400w mark.

antec true4800 is quiet and has good rails. My bro has the one with blue LED's and it even looks really good. VERY quiet i must stress that.

I like my Hiper 420watt PSU which is the UKs equivalent of the TTGI PSUs which loads of people on here recommended to me :) is 420watt PSU and cost me about £45 4 months ago from Scan computers.

Has a speed control on the back, dual fan and braided PSU cable :)

Take the time to get spiral wrap from maplins though and cable all wires because it makes cabling easier and neater :)

As I said in post above yours the TTGI is a great PSU :)

I have my SPMW @ 2500 (12.5*200) at the mo @ 1.85v set in BIOS :)

How good are the rails on the Hiper PSU's though?
I'm talking about giving it some right hammer :) Can it cope? And is it quiet?

I find it quiet and can be adjusted to suit :)

My rails with lots of hardware are 5.03 on 5v and 11.80 on the 12v rail but it has a Pot in side to adjust :) Remember the Abit NF7-S series pulls more on the 12v line than the 5v so thats why its quite a bit lower

For the price its a steal :)

I'd say do perfectly fella :)

They do a triple fan 520 watt PSU as well (see here (http://www.scan.co.uk/products/psu.htm) ) and thats £58 or £37 for the 420watt :)
