New system just came in yesterday, things seem to be going quite well so far:

Athlon64 3000+ 939 Winchester
MSI Neo2 Platinum (Had to flash to 1.3b7)
Patriot 1GB PC3200 2-2-2 (TCCD)
Thermalright XP-90/Panaflo 57cfm/AS5

Previous stuff:
eVGA Geforce 6800LE w/Ultra BIOS @ 400/1080
Antec Truepower 430

Snapped it all together last night (much love to Lian-Li PC60) and have been testing out it's OCability so far today. Currently running at 2430mhz (270x9) with 1.6v, memory at 270mhz 2.5-4-3-5-1T with 2.85v. HTT at 3x.

CPU temp at 32c Idle, 44c load, tempting to to raise the voltage a bit to see if I can get Prime95 more stable. Highest I have tried booting so far is 285 HTT, but Prime95 crapped out instantly, but at least 3dmark seemed ok. Just ran a cycle of Memtest with no errors, so I'm guessing CPU is the culprit behind Prime95's problems.

Will keep posting as I go. Suggestions and comments quite welcome :)
 
where did you buy the parts? i am interested in upgrading from my current athlon xp 2500 mobile setup which im sure many of us [H]ers have

oh and for prime 95 run it for 72 hours aka 3 days, only then do i consider OC's stable.
 
CPU and RAM from Newegg
Motherboard from ZZF
XP-90/Panaflo from Sidewinder

Ordered everything Sunday evening and everyone got their stuff here on Wednesday.
