    Wink Celeron 430 @ 3.33GHz on air

    So as I've been waiting patiently for the launch of the Q9450 (or am I?), I decided to pick up a $42 dollar Celeron 430 to keep me going for the past 2 months. To my surprise, I managed to get the thing up to 3.33GHz 24/7 on stock cooling (with a Q6600 heatsink that is). I was wondering if these speeds are any good, or if I should even attempt going higher

    Abit IP35 Pro v1.1
    Celeron-L 430 (Core 2) @ 3.33GHz
    4GB (4 x 1GB) Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2 8500 @ 925MHz 4-4-4-10
    eVGA 8800Ultra @ 660/2330

    I'm pretty sure its 372, which would explain why it's so difficult to get past 3.33GHz. Then again, I could probably up the voltage more to find out, but I'm good

    I think its impossible to be 372....celeron 430 can make a high % of overclock...
    sun, I will buy one...then I post my results
    fsb hole...wrong voltages....
    but I think its impossible only that fsb
