Ok ill have an another read at the guide!

Testing 1.52v again as we speak.

I'm not going to up the FSB any higher than it is, so 3.53ghz is good enough for me.

My memory which is 1000mhz, is pretty much maxed out at this speed with the tighter than normal timings I have.

I could try to push the FSB to 450mhz (1130mhz mem will be), but that is the highest Enjoy got it - http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=163668 - And it needed 2.2v

2.2v is higher than the 2.1v standard, so really, im happy with 440FSB, a 3.53ghz clock and mem at 1100mhz

Thanks for help again, if 1.52v pulls through over 8 hours, it's running at <= 60 just now which is an improvement over 60-64 and i'll look at getting it down further with lapping/increasing fan speed.
