I run mine at 380x9@1.4v, if I want 3.6, I have to go up to 1.5v... that's a big bump in vcore for only 200mhz core speed...
guess all 3 of my chips are mediocre chips..
actually I pulled the 2 on scythe mugens down to 375x9@1.37v, because they were hitting over 60c with summer here.
which is not bad, because the vid's on them are 1.325, so that's only a +.05 over stock...
and my dam electric bill was $400 last time, I hurt myself on that one.

450x8 is fine if it works for you Barn... I just meant some users try to max out their fsb by lowering the multi, which really has no benefit for folding.
