While it's not the most OCed I've seen one, it's done a pretty decent job thus far. I went out and bought a Silent Boost to replace my noisy HHC-001 (which cooled just fine), and temps dropped about 4C, so I'm not complaining about that :).

Sandra 2

Side note to this:
The pics show the other CPUs that are at the top of the list for Sandra, in comparison to mine. It performs pretty well, imo. :)

I've gotten no yield increases by upping the VCore, so I've just left it at stock.
I've been seeing this more and more with the 2500+'s that overclock well. Once you have to start raising the vcore there's only 100-150mhz left tops without sick voltage. Mine does 2.31ghz on default, 2.35ghz on 1.7v, and 2.43ghz on 1.85v, all my actual voltages are lower under load but that's what's set in the bios. I've never had another AMD CPU that went so far in it's potential on default before, interesting stuff.
