Anyone amd 965 stable at 4.2 on linux

was really hope someone would respond really would like to know sense i like both os

I dont own an AMD 965 but I can tell you that 3.4 - 4.2 (800mhz OC) isnt hard to do, so I would say yes, with the right tweaking, you can definitely run 4.2 stable in linux.

thnks for responding i just loaded up linux 64 bit and it running stable at 4.3 went a little higher but was wondering wy it want run stable on windows 7 64 at that clock speed scratching my head over this

could to be due to power management feature of windows 7, i'm not too familiar with linux so I'm not sure how linux manages the CPU, but if you have Cool'n'Quiet or C1E State enabled, that might affect your OC stability in windows 7, also if your power management is set on "Balanced", OS will automatically adjust your CPU clock frequency and scale power accordingly.

so my suggestion is, if you are not too concerned with power consumption, turn off cool'n'quiet and C1E, also set power management in windows 7 to "high performance", also upping the vcore voltage might help too.
