omg 503 fsb is incredible!!!

My l740a740 can do 3600 with low voltage but 500 is a dream!!!

Thank you guys for all of your kind comments.

Now for the guys that question the vcore and cpu-z here is an additional screenshot with asus probe 2 which I don't know how good it is but there is also the newest version of speedfan in the screenshot as well.....

These images are fresh installs as of 5 minutes ago with no tweaking at all.



I will also get the batch code off the box when I get home tomorrow night. It's in my baby's room right now so I can't go in there and get it since he is sleeping.

Don't worry, I'll get it.

I think I am very lucky to get such a good chip.

I would push it to 4.0ghz but I do not have Water Cooling yet. I may get it in a while but right now it's not a top priority. I think my next endeavor is to get a new GPU cooler and push my 2900pro until it busts.

Could anyone tell me why all the voltages with asus probe are red? I have it set to auto. Should I go in and change those?

I think that asus probe is broken because the SB2 Voltage keeps jumping up to 5.5 and giving me an alarm. I don't understand half the I'm looking at lol.

I'll learn more as I go though, of course with all my friend's help here on these boards.

Yes..... You are very lucky to get a chip like that. Especially being new to overclocking. I'm kinda hating you right now.

Ya I think Asus Probe is broken when u use Vista. That 5.5V issue happens to me too. I can only use it for temps.
