    really nice results, congrats

    also one question:
    i currently have X2 3800+(65w) and Asus M2R32-MVP motherboard.
    my mobo does max 280mhz htt, it sure is crap but its because of
    asus crappy bios support. cpu-s multiplier is 10 and it is totally stable
    10x280=2800mhz with inbox and 1.45v from bios.
    but that 2800mhz isnt enough and im looking for new cpu.
    so which ome should i buy? 5200+(65w), 5600+ or 6000+
    6000+ should be the best but is it worth that extra money?
    i have watercooling and i want to get cpu capable of ~3.3GHz 24/7.
    is it too much for 5200+? 13 as a multiplier should be enough but if it
    doesnt clock then i dont want to buy it.
    So, question is, which CPU dou you guys reccomend and why?
    I have decent watercooling and priority is OC

    5200+ should be enough......just be sure to get the 'CZ' model for the F3 stepping. That's probably obvious but it needs to be said as the 5200+ is available in both F2 and F3 flavors.

    I agree....that is probably a better choice. I just meant that any of the F3 cpus you mentioned are likely to hit 3.3Ghz.
