Personally I would be thrilled if I could get 3.2Ghz working on air with stock (or small increase) voltage.

I'm at 1.6V with Artic Freezer 7 pro struggling to get 3.08Ghz stable with E6420 (hoping Vdroop mod will fix all that).

Tonight, ripping damn NB off, and checking out what that thermal pad is doing... I really hope putting some good paste under there fixes all my fsb issues. Last result will be OCZ P4 Gladiator brick of copper on the NB... then its the doggy house (RMA/eBAY).
You have a dual. I had 500 FSB on my e6400 on the P5B easy... it's quads that are the issue with this board. I dumped this board for a P5K anyway. It's stable 200 MHz higher and at any given MHz is 10-15% faster in the apps I use.
