I've been OC'ing all weekend and finally got it over 3.3GHz running stable so far.
Does anyone know if I can push it more? When I tried to push it over 3.4GHz it booted fine and Windows opened but Core Temp and CPUz only read 2.2GHz, which is the E2200's normal speed.
Anyone know why this happens?
Here is a screen shot:

push it farther i was about to buy one of these one time just to see how high it would overclock.
 
I got it a little higher. It's becoming increasingly more difficult to tweek it though.

at a certain point these chips fall flat on their face. I wouldn't be suprised if you need 1.55v to get 3.5 out of it if it will even be stable.
 
What are the temps with the Vcore that high? 3.4ghz is a decent overclock if you can keep it stable.

I haven't seen any temp get higher than 40C even when prime95 is putting max load on it.
