What is the highest speed people are getting their 1.6A's at default voltage???

I've gotten up to 155MHZ FSB, but am curious where it will start taking higher vcore voltages to increase the speed.
 
the lowest I could get my vcore was 1.53v but it managed to do it all the way to 2.544ghz or 159fsb....

In my studying I have seen once the chip needs a vcore boost it usually only has 180-200mhz more clock left if you raise vcore to 1.71v...less if you go to 1.65v or use an asus!!! Asus overvolt so much up to near 1.58v which my chip did all the way up to 2.592ghz....

My chip was a May 14th pack date...


Are you prime testing it??? Are you running it with high ram speeds?

I tested my 1.6@2.533ghz with 422mhz ddr and it prime tested for 12hours....
 
Yes, I'm testing it with Prime95 and 3Dmark2001 looped. No problems so far. I also have the memory timings set at the most agressive they will go. I'm going to try higher later tonight.

I'm using a P4B533, which, I've read, gives a higher voltage at default and is probably why I'm doing so well.

That's dyn-O-mite!!! 🙂
