That is a very impressive OC. I would not have imagined, that you could OC that chip like that.

I need a 1000 w PS or it is the MB, my Vcore drops under load.


I have been working with a GO since yesterday. Also my DDR is holding me back. I is very stable at 900 MHz 4-5-5-12. But, that is all it will do at 2.3v. I went through that with the Dual core 9x. One thing I don't understand, when I loosen up on the memory timings, I get a OC failure.

I only have air cool, but I was not being held back by that before other problems failed.

re vcore droping on load - Have you disabled C1E, Vanderpool(if available) and Speedstep? What is vcore set to in bios? What memory have you got.
