    Actually I'm hoping to see 3.8Ghz stable and 4.0Ghz verified with the sb750. (Because if the serious overclockers do those speeds... then 3.4Ghz-3.6Ghz should be really easy to do. We've already seen 3.4Ghz. Come on 3.6Ghz!)
    I should clarify. I meant that I hope that it's that particular motherboard model and/or BIOS which is limiting his results. Hopefully that particular CPU batch + a different combination of motherboard and BIOS will yield better results. We probably will see much better results with SB7XXs but an overclock of just 200Mhz even with SB600 is very disappointing.

    @demonkevy666 and keithlm Do you think that such frequencies will realistically be possible with the AMD 700 series of southbridges?
    I hope it turns out like that for current 9850s
