    So my new board came in

    1600+ @ 2600+ (2186MHz, 362MHz FSB)

    I know I could do more, but I'd have to give it lots of Vcore, and I'm not very confidant in my cooling.

    I know one thing I need to take care of is the northbridge. It runs mighty hot, and since it's only passive, well I need to do something there. I'm thinking some Ceramique and a fan would do my good.

    That'll do the trick. I had a water block on mine and went back to air cooling it with no difference. Grab a 40mm and screw it on.

    If you get red Xs, just right click and select 'Show Image' until you see them.


    Note: The VCore is wrong in that image, it's really at 1.88

    That's where I am now. I played with some stuff, and I had to lower it a little due to unstability with heat issues. Now it's stable, though.

    This is a 1600+ OCed...
