run Prime95, 3dmark... if no error then you can call it ok.

overclocking has no meaning if you cant get it stable at certain point.

where can i get this prime 95?


*EDIT* ok found already in another thread

i think 2ghz also no sweat for this proc.. still stock voltage right?

yeah up to 2400MHz also no sweat

everything all stock....except the mem spd i lower it to 166 mhz the temperature after i oc abit still at 40 celcius

Mem speed ? Its not the mem speed that's causing the temp increase. Its the proc, the higher the clock speed the higher the temp would be. Increasing the mem do increase the cpu clockspeed in directly. If the temp increases within -+ 5c then its still acceptable. How much was the temp increase btw ?

pm me for powercolor x1600 pro k...

erm... im new to learning wat is OC. if OC not for stable then OC for wat?

if not stable then the OC doesn't count

Hmmm..... u mean OC more? until the CPU "fries" like that......
