Hey, it's still a fast CPU. It'll trade blows with my 2500+ @ 2.3GHz.
EDIT: Can you get the FSB any higher? Try running at 11.5x210.

Uhm. Amazing overclock? I think not.
Good overclock though. Congrats. Enjoy your system. Unless you got a Prommy or Vapo LS and you got that 1700 at 3ghz+, it ain't that amazing. :p

my T-Bred can do 2.4GHZ but it needs 1.85v, but it says 1.802v in CPU-Z. I think thats to high for a T-Bred so I lower the speed to 2.3Ghz check sig

You have a Barton which doesnt overclock that well, my 2800+ @ 2400Mhz so...

Good job,

That being said, my 2100+ runs solid at 2.47 Ghz @ 1.90volts, 47 C. at full load, air cooled.

At such a high voltage many of the Tbred B (1.5V stock) can hit 2.4ghz.
I did that for 10 minutes for fun, then lowered it back to 11x200 at 1.675V.
I think I got an additional 10C degrees by increasing voltage from 1.675V to 1.85V.
