    This is so unfair, just when I hit 3.65Ghz on my Phenom some one doubles my overclock.

    Amazing. I could not figure out what cooling he uses. Could not be air - at least not for long.

    Finally bought a 2nd-hand UD7 (EOL & can't get one in the market) & couldn’t wait to put on my 965 for max. push tonight.
    I changed the OS from XP to Win7 & found that the previous problems running PI was due to the OS (something’s wrong with my XP CD) …NOT Ram/SSD/Board/PSU/Etc. Oh, man…Crazy mad is really getting old !
    With not much OS trimmed & no tweak, the following achieved:-


    Same old Rig:-
    AMD Phenom II X4 965 C3
    Giga 890FXA-UD7
    NV Fermi 460
    OCZ Vertex 2 50g SSD
    Silverstone 1500w
    The Dual Wall Evaporator
    GC2 Compound

    7.306g Valid…actual volt. was 1.856v
    LN2, not sure if it's this exact model, but along these lines i suspect...
