Wow repoman I thought for sure that you could have gotten up to around 3.1 if you could get 2.9 at stock volts. Its still a great OC. I'll be happy if I get up to 2.8. By the way how hot do these chips get? I remember my upgrade from my 3200 venice to my 3700 sandie. The idle temps went up around 10C. If the temp goes up even further on the new 165 then I'll have to get a new air cooler.
