X2 550 Unlocking & Overclocking Consolidated

[mursaat]

X2 550 0925APMW with Asrock A790GMH/128M and crappy OCZ Reaper DDR2-800 (wont even boot at 400mhz 1T with 2.0vdimm)



vCore in BIOS set to 1.40, CnC disabled (even tho it works enabled, puts the proc at 798mhz with 0.9vCore). I have to tweak the vCore, but anyways this is my moms comp and I'll leave it everything on auto with 4 cores (3100mhz, 1.30vcore, etc)

All this with the AMD HSF (72ºC with OCCT running, doesnt hang). I'm gonna leave it with maybe 1.3875vCore and CnC disabled, because now it's idling at 56ºC (it's 35ºC inthis room).

I'm a bit out of AMD OC, is it worth to overclock the FSB? It's cool the BEs are multiplier unlocked!
