I'm running at 3.1ghz with 1.28v 100% stable so far. 33c idle and 42c while playing games but skyrockets to 58c+ under prime95. 20c ambient.
How well does the AMD overdrive stress test stack up vs prime95? Opinions on the subject?

You need to go back in bios and raise the vcore if it doesnt boot. That or clear cmos and run stock settings.

I highly suggest lapping CPU if anyone is interested. Right now with zalman 9700 and 9950 125W CPU lapped 1.2625V @ 52° sitting at 3.055 prime95 testing as we speak. Just updated BIOS so I had to restart my OC using straight AMD OverDrive to OC.
