Been playing with my 3.06

[bob(nz)]

Have been playing with my 3.06 over the weekend and am dissapointed to report that 3.96 is my highest possible overclock :confused: - was really hoping to break the 4 gig barrier

Have been happily running this cpu @ 3795 crunching Seti 24/7

Highest stable able to run Sandra CPU test is 3910 (check out that cpu score :D)

Highest stable able to run 3D Mark is 3842

Pics can be found PCDB Entry (http://pcdb.overclockers.com.au/view.php?page=pics&name=bob(nz)Prom3.06 )

3D Mark scores here (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6347868) and here (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=618968)

Are you vapourcooling or something? - then you should be annoyed.
