Ok, no help here. Thanks anyways.

sigh... maybe if you tried something and came back and asked 'well, i did this and got that...'...

with stock hsf just push up the bclk until it fails, then back off 100mhz... you probably don't even have to change anything else... might as well leave turbo on...
