What are some of the speeds are you getting on your overclocked x2 3800+?

I have it overclocked to 2.5ghz and running very stable. Anyone able to get anything higher with stability

I have been able to OC my 3800+ to 2600Mhz Prime stable (1 hour Torture test)

I was able to OC it to 2700Mhz, but the additional 100MHz was not worth the voltage increase or additional heat output.

Memory is on a divider and running at 217MHz (DDR434) at 2.5, 3, 2, 5 timings. Memtest stable 8 hours, no errors.

Temps vary within the range of 30-35C when idle, to 45-50C when under load. The variance in each range is due to ambient temp and additional load on the watercooler from the GPU, depending on how graphically demanding the application is.

CPU, 7800 GT & NForce Chipset are all cooled with Koolance EXOS and appropriate cooler blocks.
