First off, I'm pretty new to OC'ing, but I think I've done pretty well - what's your thoughts, should I push it further?

AMD 64 3200 ( 1mb cache <3 ) @ 2000mhz -> 2200mhz
Corsair value ram (1gb) - 2700

FSB is 220, pushing my ram to 178mhz ( i believe ) w/ 1.6 vdimm

Passed prime95 simply.

I know ram is bad, but I love these two things.. never gone wrong.

Should I push it more? Temps are perfectly fine, the hottest being my x850xt pe ( i need to buy a seperate hs+f, it gets like 60-70c on load :( )
 
I didn't know they made 3200 with 1mb cache :confused: get cpu-z and post a screenshot.
Is that value ram actually pc2700 stock (maybe left over from a axp setup?)
I think you meant 2.6 vdimm, which is normal anyway.
When you say passed prime95 simply, what exactly does that mean? I like to see 12+ hours of small fft torture test.
Tell us what temps you think are perfectly fine, and are you using the stock heatsink?
What motherboard, and how is your case airflow? (fans up front and back, etc)
70c load on an x850 xtpe isnt bad, remember GPU's run a heck of a lot hotter than cpu's (my water cooled 6800gt loads at 50c and im happy as heck)
Answer these questions and we can better let you knwo where to go next, but I think you can push it more easily, and can always use a divider to keep the ram in check.
