Using the asus ai booster I was able to achieve a 10% overclock easily. The temps did not rise out of the normal range while running the gpu tests in 36mark2006. The CPU tests pushed the heat up to around 59^c. I am wondering what the max temp. can get on this AMD processor?

OK I really would like to achieve a 2.4ghz processor speed (a 400mhz overclock) max. No real need for more.

I can set my HT speed to 240 and still maintain a cpu ratio of 10X. This obviously would give me a 2400 cpu speed and a 240 x 5 = 1200 HTT (fsb).

I am wondering how it will affect my ram, if I will need some sort of divider or if I could run it straight up?

Any help from you all would be much appreciated.
