It isn't stable, but that is because of the vdroop on my S3. I can't get this to be stable over 507mhz, but I think vdroop (even after the mod) still plays a role as well as nb voltage. I sure would like to use my chip at 528mhz fsb like I could with it in my S3.
My e6300 is getting hung up on 507fsb too. I think we're being limited by the motherboard because 500fsb is totally stable at 1.38v but 508 isn't stable at 1.6v. I'll boot fine at 500, clockgen up to 506/7 and the system will freeze. I have the vdroop mod too. Maybe the 0505 bios with the 1333 support has a new strap that will allow a higher overclock? I haven't tried it yet.
