I'm watching eBay to pick up a Socket 939 FX-60 which is as fast as my motherboard will take. If anyone's upgraded and got one in a drawer I'd be interested.

Or, if I may drift into the realms of fantasy, a 939 pin Opteron 180/185? Or an Athlon x2 4800+?

I have an X2 3800+ that OCs to 2.8Ghz at home, very rare stepping too

That's worth knowing, I had no idea they could be pushed that hard. This Asus board has an automated overclock option which pushes to find the fail state and then balances under it, with a selector for holding the voltage or the multiplier high and letting the FSB clock drift upward to meet the limit. I'll experiment with it on the current processor, what I don't know at the moment is how to read out the runtime state, I only got given the board a couple of days ago.
Presumably your stepping's E4 or E6? |
