I am running an Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton) at the 3200+ speed. I have the A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard. I overclocked the cpu from 166fsb to 200 and left the multiplyer at 11X just on air cooling. I have two sticks of corsair XMS memory running in dual channel at PC3200 and I wanted my CPU to run in sync with the memory speed. I had to set the AGP speed to 66 but the cpu overclocked like a champ no extra voltage needed. Running stable after 3 hours of 3Dmark 05 running gets upto about 55deg C at full load and about 46C at idle. If I can overclock my cpu from 1833 MHz to 2200 Mhz I am sure that you could clock the 3200 up to 2400 MHz or more.

Just FYI it POSTed at 200 fsb @ 12.5X but didnt boot. I had to drop it to 11 before it became stable which is ok because thats the CPUs default multiplyer anyway.
