what is everyone overclocking to with there dual core Intel chips?

[SlimySquid]

Here is my 3.0 dual core on a asus P5Wd2 mobo with some awsome OCZ memory that is holding damn good timings.

1-What cooling solution are you using?

2-What are temps at idle and under load? when overclocked that is.

3-RAM....I see it says OCZ DDR2 PC5300 and timings are 3-3-3-8. Now, I see newegg is selling OCZ DDR2 667 (4-4-4-8) for $153 which is a good price and I am wondering if you have that EXACT same 1GB kit of OCZ's, except you set the timings to 3-3-3-8 from the 4-4-4-8. If so, that revives my thoughts on getting the P5LD2 or P5WD2, because the bastards from Corsairk, newegg or ZZF (whomever) were selling Corsair's DD2 675 CAS3 for $244 and now they're $310

1 Water cooling uysing various parts and all combined by me in a nice mix.

2 Idle is 38c and temps loaded up went to 49c

3 that would be the exact memory from exact place and it is holding very well, I had to up the memory voltage but it works great.
I think I can get 4 ghz today but I don't think 4 ghz will be a stable gaming setting though

The URL tells me of a Prescott 531 on a 945P.. What's up with the link?

I just clicked on the link from the quote you did of my post and the link from my original post. Both lead to a CPU-Z validation page showing my dual core Intel 3.0 overclocked to 3.9ghz and also give memory timings information and motherboard information. It is a way to validate your cpu-z overclocks since alot of people were making bogus screenshots of fake overclocks I know you know that part.

3.73 on air 266x14

4.2Ghz easy with cooling. 4.5Ghz is about the max without cascade.

normal dual core or expensive edition dual core?

Also curious, as I love OCing dells now, I'm wondering if i can pick up the 9100 with an 820 and set fsb to 266?, A nice Dual core 3.73 ghz processor, complete system for under $700 would be possible.

lol expensive dual core....
