2600+ Xp-m + Dry Ice Redux!!!!!!!!!!

[charlie]

After last DI run, I inspected imprint and found I was missing about 30% of the core in the imprint!!!! I fashioned a new mounting method and have excellent (you'll soon see HOW excellent) contact to the core. In addition I used mod to increase Vdd to 1.95V. So I fire up at 13 x 200 = 2600, Vcore 2.23v, Vdimm 3.25v, Vdd 1.95v, Vagp 1.7v, 2-3-2-6, CPU Interface enabled and boot to Windows.
I pull up Clockgen and immediately grab 13 x 225 = 2925. I try 13 x 230 = 2990, still good. I pull off a 13 x 235 = 3055 hanging in there... with sweat dripping from my brow I snap in 13 x 240 = 3120 and IT HELD, about this time I'm like freakin' out!!!!!!!!!! If you guys use clockgen as much as I do, you understand that right after you click "set values" you cringe for a few seconds to see if it goes "black"...
I try a bit higher and get a few reboots. I turn off the rig, pack the tube with more DI, wait about 15 minutes searching XS.org for a Vtt mod, and then come back and fire it up at 13 x 200 and open Clockgen STRAIGHT to 13 x 241 = 3133 Wham-O OMFG Splooo-ey!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried running some benchies up at that speed, but I still have some issue with the memory, I can open things on the desktop, but try a Sandra and it's toast.
I had some condensation issues, and the board is upside down in the sink with a hairdryer blowing on it. I have a few more lbs of DI and will try again...
But what a run so far...is this the highest XP-M anyone has seen?
