System specs:
- E6550 2.33ghz (stock) + thermalright ultra 120 extreme hs with 92mm fan
- Asus P5K-SE m/b
- 2gb Transcend DDR2-1066 ram (was using generic DDR2-667 ram)
- Xfx alphadog XXX 8800gt 512mb (750/1907/950)

So i decided to do a bit of overclocking since my new ram was on the way.
By upping the generic ram voltage from 1.8v - 1.9v i was able to get a solid 2.8ghz with the ram running at 800. By going up to 2.0v on the ram i was able to hit 3ghz with the generic ram running at an impressive 857mhz, sadly this was as far as i could push it.
I am now running at 3.2ghz on stock voltage with the 1066 ram, and have broken the 20k barrier in 3dmark05.
Will continue to push it and update.
 
I have my e6550 at 3.2Ghz, My memory is holding me back though.
