    mark MY words: the E4300 will be the next REAL Celeron 300A

    Same thing with the P4 1.6A chips. These used to do 2.40Ghz @ default voltages also (50% overclock). I had one that did 2.60GHz at one notch above default...great chips just like the 300A. I am sure that the E4300 will be almost the same but it is coming out a bit too late

    Brand New Opty 165 Stepping CCBBE 0610DPMW New "BB" Memory Controller

    I have had P95 error out at ~9 hours :( Heres what I do: Initially, i do 5 min to determine the max OC. Then, when I have a rough idea, i do 30 min. After, I have found the approximate settings, i let it run for ~24 hours. I note down all the settings, restore everything to default...

    Brand New Opty 165 Stepping CCBBE 0610DPMW New "BB" Memory Controller

    Thanks..that was why i initially purchased the 22g ceramique tube (much cheaper and easier to clean...i dont do phase change). Only reason I was wondering about AS5 was b/c mostly everyone is using AS5 and each HSF/CPU post says to get some AS5 with your HSF/CPU. Why dont people just...

    Brand New Opty 165 Stepping CCBBE 0610DPMW New "BB" Memory Controller

    wish I had some AS5 :(. I am using Arctic Ceramique which is better than AS3 but a tad "not" better than AS5 (i think 1-2C difference between AS5 and ceramique). but even ceramique needs couple of days. I will run it at 2.8Ghz for couple of days at 1.36v and then go back to ocing it later..

    Brand New Opty 165 Stepping CCBBE 0610DPMW New "BB" Memory Controller

    What is the safe max temp for these 165s under load ? i am already running in high 50s (58-60) when on 1.53v using the Scythe Ninja hsf. the cpu runs very cool when using 1.36v @ 2.80Ghz (~45 on full load) but ~58-59 at 2.93Ghz @ 1.53v :(
