Sweet OC! Lots of the dlt3c's dont like more volts than that. :(
I only have a dut3c. I dont think sandra will help you much.

i have an enermax 350w psu
i have noticed that the 12 line goes down to
10.9v or so in bios!:eek:
i thought these dual fan variable speeds enermax
compensated the lines!
infact i have gone up to 1.93 on the chip
crashes in windows though!

better supply may help -- what week is your cpu?

no idea on the week info
but does:
2000mhz default
2400mhz @ 1.6
2500mhz @ 1.65
2600mhz @ 1.8
2700mhz @ 1.85
curently using a 13 multiplier on a 200 bus
100% stable
got it from a friend :)
i thought the enermax were the best on the market
i know the vapo pe consumes loads on the 12v line
any recomendations on a better psu?

The die hards will say pc power and cooling, but the antec 550w Truecontrol is pretty sweet and easy to get your hands on. Why they went with a gray panel for the controls is beyond me though. You can adjust your three rails. You can pimp12.2 or so. Again....sweet.
