Ive been a reader for a long time and overclocking since the days of 300A and never felt an urge to post, but its been a while coming for Phenom, and regardless of stuation as it stands i look forward to getting round to one.

Hell i just got rid of my Opteron 170 in the process of getting rid of my 165 also, I was lucky enough to win a competion at [H] and i got 2 x Corsair XMS3200Pro XL (522), they have been my rock for my systems over years. I finally made the step to AM2(+)

For me its quite remarkable to see that AMD have all 3 parts on the market. People just got to understand that progress isnt going to end, and that the media like to write ....
Anyhow, macci may i ask what voltages are required for phenom OC ?
Is memspeed head room affected with Max OC ?

Paitently awaiting for chipsets to appear at moment, i have just got myself Asrock NF6G to tide me over (using 2.10 bios) Which appears to be phenom compatible for a price of £31 not expecting miracles but it will be interesting to see how it performs on a very low budget board with budget ram.

Also could someone confirm if there AMD have a unlocked-multi Phenom CPU for retail. if this was possibly an option for all Phenom CPU this would be a very persuasive option for the enthusiast. For those wishing to have an AMD system.
