recently i pushed my 4200 to 2.5GHz (default is 2.2GHz) with 1.3V. and my RAM boosted to 840MHz (2.1V 5-4-4-12 2T, dunno y my CL didnt go to 4 even though i already set it at 4). i tried on some gaming (TF2 and FarCry2) and the system seems to be stable. the speedfan's K8 temp never go beyond 50c even though the cpu temp shows 61c max. the thing is, izzit ok for the RAM to be in tat overclocked value? (it should be 800MHz@2.4GHz) my spec:

AMD X2 4200 Brisbane 2.2GHz@2.5GHz
Corsair XMS2 DHX 2GHz 800MHz 4-4-4-12 2T
Sapphire ATi HD3870
Abit AN-M2HD bios rev.20
Xigmatek Red Scorpion CPU cooler
Windows XP Pro SP3
CoolerMaster eXtreme Power 390W
