Its what I have..

Running 2.3 ghz on Air and 1.825 volts. Using an AX-7 heatsink with a tornado fan that really really needs to be regulated a little slower.

Max Temp after running prime95 all night was 46 degrees. Idle temp was 41. In a hot room I'd probably hit low fitties at 100%

This is on an Aopen ak79g-400vn board

I'm not even sure how to check the stepping, where did you view yours from? What programs? I have Sandra Standard and under CPU/BIOS info, stepping/revision says: A / 0 (0)

Stepping Mask: ?

lol but anyway, I'm running at 2.313 (11x210) @ 1.8v

On air

your stepping is on the CPU itself ... look at the chip ... theres a little black rectangle sticker with writing on it just below the core (centre) of the CPU .... bye :D

I forget my stepping, but I'm pretty sure it's date is 0330. It runs 2.2 Ghz (200 FSB) @ stock (1.65V) and 2.0Ghz @ 1.57V (heavily undervolted).

I have a DFI NF2 Ultra and 2500+ AQXEA and I can run 230FSB on stock voltage but my 2100 RAM holds me back, so I leave it at 11x200. The DFI is a bada$$ oc'er with an aqxea

AQXEA 0330 VPMW

in sig...

215.5 x 10.5 = 2265 at 1.8v (actual)

not the best 2500 overclocker ,,, but a sweet snappy chip :p

It should be good. Mine is 0330RPMW. Does 11x200@stock or 12x186 @ stock or 11.5x200@1.75v (MBM shows 1.648v).

Week 24... 2.2 Ghz on default voltage, or 2.3 on 1.725 volts. It will also handle a 233 Mhz FSB, but my RAM can't run at that speed, so I keep it at 200.

AQXEA 0334 SPMV, 2.2Ghz@ 1.62V (11x200) SLK-800a/Panaflo 80MM H1A

I've only had this chip a couple of weeks, haven't really messed with it much!
