^ Yeah you and your Vette... Benchmark THAT! LOL...
I'll take a suicide run to 1.5v in a min here.. I'd never had 3.8g to boot for me before, so I got a screen shot and got out of there before it BSOD'd on me..
Stupid question: What's the CPU NB VID?? Not the NB Voltage, this is a different option. North bridge, I gather but what exactly is it that I am overvolting? It seemed to have helped..

I've heard about the PCI-E bus clock trick, it never seemed to work for me. I found out last night I could probably run 3.8ghz 24/7 without too much of a problem, though.
Don't be afraid to push voltage, I know James and I have an overvoltage option. The highest I've pushed was 1.65v total, but it doesn't really help. Sweet spot is 1.55+.062v...so basically 1.612v before vdroop (which I think pulls it down to 1.584 or so). But with that voltage, I boot almost 4.1 after a couple tries. Just don't go crazy with the voltage.
Really...
I'll try that next time I'm feelin froggy.. But again, I am running Vista Ult 64b, so I guess I can't ask for too much. But I got 3.8g stable enough to work with. What's the CPU NB VID?? I set those the same as the NB Voltage. 1.400 or 1.425. Also What's the HT Freq (IIRC)?? 8bit or 16 bit?? Also.... I have an option for Advanced Clock Calibration.. I haven't messed with it, but all 4 cores are set to -2%... Is that ok? Or can I up it to -1% or even 0??
I couldn't get 3.9g to boot.. here were my rough settings.. See what you guys think.
Mult @ 19.5
VCORE 1.500 or 1.525 (tried both)
FSB @ 200
HT LINK @ 800 (it doesn't seem to like it when I mess w the FSB on higher clocks)
NB @ 13x
NB V @ 1.4 or 1.425
RAM @ 2.1v @ 7-6-6-18
RAM clock @ 800mhz @ 4.00
SB @ +.1v
I know I'm forgetting something..
