Rate my OC

I have an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Clawhammer clocked @ 2.63 GHz with 1 GB of Corsair XMS 2 CAS Latency RAM, an eVGA GeForce 6800GS(not OCed yet), a Gigabyte GA-K8N-Pro-SLI mobo, and a 430 Watt Rexpower PSU. The voltage on the CPU is 1.55V and thevoltage of the RAM is 2.8V. If you need anymore info to rate my OC, tell me.
 
What's the stock voltage of the CPU? I think your current voltage is a little...high? That's just me.

79.99
 
I would of been more impressed if you used stock voltage. It's really more about luck than um...ratings.

I'll try stock voltage. The volt increase was out of paranoia. As for the ratings,... I just like the flattery.

Anything I could do to get a better rating by you guys?

Why do you care what we think? 😛 If you want a good rating from me itll cost $$$.

Without a $$ incentive i give it a 75, as i could never get my clawhammer up past 2.2 from a stock 2.0, this was however with a crappy mobo.
 
ummm 35/100...I would rate it higher if I hadn't gone better with my OC...A64 3000+(E6 Venice skt 754)@2.66ghz(266x10 1.5v)
 
nice OC especially for a clawhammer core...

man, i remember my northwood p4 w/ht days...2.4Ghz to 3.4Ghz+. those were some MASSIVE overclocks back in the day.
 
yeah.. that 1.55 volts is a bit high.. if your comfortable with it than its all good but I would'nt run it that high.. see how high you can keep it at 1.5volts


I could get my cpu to 3.15ghz at 1.52volts but at 1.42 I have 3.015ghz about 130mhz less but about 5c cooler
 
60! go over 2750MHz like 2800 2900 Upgrade your cooling dont go over 1.65v dont over your GPU!
your GA-K8N-Pro-SLI not good for OC do DFi boards
 
80/100 nice OC for a clawhammer...and 1.55v is not high at all for that core, have you tried increasing the voltage, i've seen some OC to 2.7 ghz with 1.6v+

btw...what heatsink are you using(that OC would really be impressive if that's on stock.)
