Looks like my 3200+ winnie is not living up to expectation. So far:

I've got a max safe HTT of 300.
A max chip capable of 233 (Prime gets an error at 245). I've upped the vcore twice and only got small gains.

I'm supposed to run Prime now for 12 hours but I'm starting to doubt that continuing on is worth it. The most I can oc to would be 2.33, right?.

My 3200+ winnie overclocked much better on the 9x multi for some reason.
The best I could get with the 10x was 242x10=2420 with 1.55v. But it would do 289x9=2601mhz with 1.55v

Also, don't forget to change your RAM timings to 3-4-3-8. Your RAM should be able to do a minimum of 285 Mhz 1:1 with those timings, and 285x9= nearly 2.6 Ghz. That would perform pretty well with your RAM at 1:1.
