OC potential of Phenom II on SB600

[Oese]

the asus m3a79-t has 10 phases? well ok i didnt know but it has a more or less bad bios i think..

no, to my knowledge there are bugs in the sb600, but they do not hold oc back. that has to do with the pll circuits on the boards, which can be properly tuned with sb750, and the complex design of the k10 i addition. ACC is a "trick" or more like a feature to reach higher clocks due to better timed clock skew, but it does not work in all cases. if you own a good clocker, the difference will be nothing to 100mhz between sb600 and sb750. whatever, overall oc is slightly increased but not much.

i will buy an am2+ phenom II and clock it on my m2r and i think i'll reach good clocks. i get 3,56ghz out of my 9750 with htt overclocking with only water, and i think phenom II will push that to 4ghz easily if everything is real what we hear these days..

am3 i will wait for a decent dfi UT board and good am3 ram at a decent price.. no need to change whole system right now only because of DDR3...
