    New high hit on the E8400. 3.51Ghz using these values:

    BIOS: 1B4
    FSB: 1560
    RAM: 780
    VCORE: +0.2v
    DIMM: 2.1v
    NB: 1.35v
    SB: 1.6v
    FSBT: 60

    Stability unverified, but so far so good.

    Edit: Above values refined after experimenting, still able to achieve 3.51Ghz:

    BIOS: 1B4
    FSB: 1560
    RAM: 780
    VCORE: +0.15v
    DIMM: 2.1v
    NB: 1.35v
    SB: auto
    FSBT: auto

    I'm not sure what role the FSBT plays but I was able to get here with it left on auto. SB modification also seemed to be redundant. System would only become stable when NB voltage bumped up. 1.2v = fail 1.25v = fail 1.3v = OS load but not stable 1.35v = stable sweet spot. I'm also noticing that the vcore can remain relatively low ... at least at my current best of 3.51Ghz. More to follow.
