Dude, no doubt it is a good overclocking result, except the RAM timing part tongue.gif

I'm not sure if you are going to use this PC for long hours and yr lifespan expectancy (must be workable for 2-3 yrs or wat). Let's assume u r concerned about hardware stability and lifespan, here are some suggestions:

1. CPU vcore no more than 10% from original Vcore, or for even safer play, AMD recommends about +0.05V from default. Well, this is only if u wanna use tat PC for 8-10 years, so IMHO, 10% is good enough bcoz it gives u about 0.12V increment from default.

2. Tighten the RAM timing. Run it at DDR450 / DDR466 using fine tuned tight timing might give u much better results than 3-4-4-x or even 3-7-7-x @ DDR560.

3. Make sure yr system is stable, bcoz multimedia content creation software is as stressful as SuperPI. I am sure u dont want any error in yr results, or yr software suddenly auto close / BSOD when the encoding process is near the end tongue.gif
