These will OC fairly easily to 3.80Ghz, in my experience, given enough voltage (may be higher than other higher-SKU CPUs that are binned better). However, the included heatsink is only 65W, and may not hold the temps low enough over extended periods of usage while OCed. Better to add a 212+/EVO or something, or a 95W stock AMD cooler.
