Well maybe I just got unlucky, but when I first started overclocking my Barton 2500+ I needed to bump Vcore to 1.7V just to get it stable at 220x8 from 215x8 (stable at 1.65V). By stable, I mean not erroring in prime95 within 10 minutes. At these low CPU speeds, I'd have thought that I could achieve a much higher FSB, and I don't think my NB/RAM can be limiting me considering the NB is C1, the RAM is DDR 466 and it needed a Vcore bump to stabilise it. It's a 'Y' chip BTW, 0335 SPMW, and the 69th core from the middle of the wafer. Thanks for any tips or advice.
