every chip varies, esp. oc'ing with amd chipsets your best bet is to have a 790chipset, but with a 770; if you have a good chip, good cooling, you should be able to hit 3.5 no problems.

Damn. I ordered radeon 4890 about a 1 and half week ago and it hasn't arrived yet so i bought radeon 4830 (which i will put to my other computer when 4890 arrives) but after install, every time i play something computer bsod's or reboots!:O Sometimes without doing anything. Strange. With integrated radeon 3300 everything worked fine but low graphics. I had this same problem with radeon 4850 with my other computer which has entirely different parts than this one. I bet it's because my version of vista x64 because 4850 worked with xp lot better. Perhaps i can get radeon working and perhaps better stable oc after i change this crappy windows.. (windows 7 is downloading..)

*Or is there any other conclusions??!

hey guys im thinking of getting this cpu on my am2+ board

I've got a question, what are the temps with this cpu? I heard they were low.

I've got good airflow in my case but my cpu cooler isn't the best. Will I need to get a new one of I want to get 3.5?

Considering how low they are with the stock cooler, which is no longer as great as AMD use to make them. Anything will be an improvement.

Vista64 works fine with my 4850. I assume you have a good PSU which I didn't see in your sig and that you have the latest Catalyst installed. Did you turn off your IGP in the BIOS?

Edit: Sorry about the double post. Is there a way to multiquote? Thanks!

Well I'm going to try 3.6 again with 4 cores... lol. 3.5 crashed after 5 hours but my 1066 memory was pushed a little.

I need to start lower on memory so now I'm running Prime95 with my memory @ 932. I'm hoping this might help in stableness. I will learn this stuff in time so wish me luck tonight.

Temps from Prime are topping 55c. I have the Tuniq Tower 120 cooling it right now.

I also will be getting my CORSAIR 850 in the mail tomorrow with my new case Cosmos 1000.

or you can try disabling the integrated graphics first. then see what happens. sometimes its not awlays a good idea to have hybrid graphics. and i am in dire needs of a new vid card. just painly waiting for the 4770, but idk if its even worth the wait..
