An X2 6000 can go further than 3.2ghz?

not likely, not even on phase change, because of the architecture it has, perhaps 3.5ghz very upper limit if you have great cooling

With good cooling, maybe. You'd have better luck getting a brisbane and trying to take it there. Many many people are hitting 3+ with the 3600+. A high end brisbane, good mobo, and a great cooler may get you above 3.2

3.2ghz? Not likely, not without a top end mobo anyways, you'd need some excellent cooling to top it off

I saw a review claiming they got to 3.6 but didn't see any evidence like a cpu-z or something so not sure. If it can go above 3.2 it seems the limit would be like 3.6 on water or phase.

Lots of the brisbane guys are getting there. Shoot, mine would make it to the splash screen at 2.9Ghz on the stock cooling. I would think with an excellent air cooler and a slightly better mother board... 3.2 or better is possible.

I don't have linkage right now, but I'll see what I can dig up

I highly doubt that 3.6 is stable or valid. The highest stable am2 oc I've seen is done on a 65nm 5000 on phase change

I've had my old x2 6000+ Windsor @ 3.5ghz 24/7 stable air cooled on a TRUE 57C load on a none fancy MSI K9A Platinum:
