I believe it's my board that is the limiting factor on my OCing because I have two D0s that OC the same and anything else I try, both would crap out. That factor alone tells me it's my board that is unable to OC the way I want it to. I only managed to get that CPU-Z Validation screen, but if I run LinX (or OCCPT, Everest Benchmark modules, et) both would crap out. The only stable OC I've managed to run on both of them is 21x205 (4.305Ghz). Even 21x210 craps both out. I just sold one of them and now down to just one D0. Am thinking of getting a Xeon to try. Am also thinking of the 3849B018 from the local Micro Center.
Asus Rampage II Gene, Xeon W3550 D0 Mushkin PC3-2000 6GB, BFG 9600GT OC 512MB DDR3
Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe 1.01G, AMD A64 4000+, 2x1GB Ultra PC-3200, EVGA 7600GT 256MB DDR3
Asus MA378-T with AMD Athlon 64 X2 7850
ECS 945GCT-M/1333 v3.0, Intel Celeron E1400, MSI 8500GT 256MB DDR3
BIOStar P4M900-M7 Rev. 7.0, Intel Celeron 440, 1GB Kingston, 6600LE
Gigabyte M61PME-S2P with AMD Athlon 64 LE-1660, EVGA 8500GT 1GB DDR2
Sub-week 50 chips are disappearing quickly, so I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.
Having said that, as you mentioned, your board is likely holding you back so another CPU likely won't give you any gains.
