e6400 stable at 3.4 w/ stock volts?

[big4x4]

Just upgraded my motherboard and just for kicks I booted it up at 3.4 with 1.3 volts. As I speak it's been running orthos for 12 hours with no problem and load temps are 53 celcius. I don't want to push it any higher but I wonder what it can do!

You'll probably hit an FSB wall soon, I'm betting. Just because a CPU performs well at low voltage doesn't mean that it has the ability to go really high. I know someone who had 3.2ghz on an E6600 with stock volts and couldn't get past 3.5ghz regardless of voltage (the computer wouldn't even POST).

big - don't forget to upgrade your sig, so we can stop wondering how you fit that e6400 on your K8NPro SLI!
