Sometimes a man needs a break from all the high-end top-notch hardware overclocking and go back to basics. For me, basics means Super PI 32M with some challenges; in this case: Clarkdale and single stage cooling.
First, I looked up all the Clarkdale SuperPI 32M Single Stage scores in the HWBOT database, which rather surpringly resulted in a list of a mere 30 results. Then I ordered that list according to PI time and give it some nice Vbulletin tags.

What was I thinking?! Of course, when I need to find the most efficient (time vs cooling) Pi32M scores I need to check out Youngpro's profile first! That being said, I'm also impressed by Ross' run. I'm sure he would get really close to Youngpro with a bit higher CPU frequency.
So, after playing around a bit with this H55 board focussing on the Intel IGP overclockability, I went for a round of PI. Of course I don't want to use the 2:8 divider (which is totally on Clarkdale), so I needed to use the 2:10. It's also known that Clarkdale is pretty bad in memory overclocking, so anything south of DDR3-2100 I would be extremely pleased with.
So, without touching the subtimings or doing a copy-waza I reached this score:

Now, I need to go back to my lab and try to beat the other scores
