Got my new X3 720 BE!!!

Mitch?

banned
.. and I fizznuckin' it!
Here are some screen shots, It was amazing at stock voltages, and right now I'm running it stock :P
This was my max overclock, stable enough to run SuperPi, and I browsed internet for a bit, but once I started to open a game it crashed.

This is stock, all I did was x13 the multiplier to get a 900mhz overclock!!

I'm sure it'll go higher, I didn't bother with the ref clocks to get between 3500-3600.

4ghz would boot up, and get to about the windows logon before it crapped out, i tried from 1.43 to 1.56v with it, to little success.

I'll get some 3dMark06 up in here soon to, gotta go see if I passed any SuperPi scores :P

Also, gotta 750w Rosewill with a 135mm blue LED fan :) :) :)
Using the specs in the siggy otherwise :P

EDIT:
Here's the 3dmark06 - I was in 'diagnostic' mode under msconfig for boot, so no internet access. The file it saved as is .xml and for w/e reason I can't access it, except for text. Here it is though.
3.8ghz @ 1.45v.

**** ass dude. no matter what settings, i played with it for an hour, and 3939 is the absolute maximum. i'm mildly amazingly pissed :P it's still an AMAZING chip though. alot of people put down the K9A2 for it's 'old' SB600 southbridge, but i've consistently gotten better than average overclocks on all my chips. so SUCK IT haters. :P
 
now, all you need to do is upgrade to an msi am3 motherboardm and that chip is practically cherry, especially since you were able to hit 3.6 on stock voltage
 
VERY nice, I'll definantely buy a 920 now. What was your last processor?

My last was a Phenom I 7750, got it to 3.4ghz mostly stable.
This AM3 chip is bar far the best I've had, at least since my 5000+ that'd hit 3.55ghz.
