It may only be in a newer BIOS version too.

Hopefully by today I should have something to show. Right now I'm at 3.9ghz with 1.47v and load temps don't seem too bad. So far the highest that I have seen are 45°C. The problem is that the last couple of bumps have needed a lot more vcore, 4.0ghz isn't looking to good right now.

Are you using Vista 64-bit? I think you are at the limit for 64-bit.

It's actually called NvCC which stands for Nvidia Clock Calibration. It's a form of ACC for the Nvidia nForce 980a only. But from what I've read it uses a separate micro code from ACC that does not allow unlocking.

There's an overclocking limit due to OS? I don't know if that's true or not, but you are right about the limit. 230x17= 3.91ghz, which is pretty much my max, somewhat stable clocks. I have booted over 4ghz but not stable.

Right now I'm trying to work things out using a 16x mulit to try and increase the reference clock. I just don't know how much voltage is safe for the cpu/nb. I'm still trying to figure that out. If I can do 245x16, I'll be happy.

I don't believe in the OS limit. With the Brisbanes you could increase stability by adjusting the memory sub timings for a higher OC. I wonder if the 550 has the same trait.

Yes it is a known fact that you can gain a bit more overclock by using a 32-bit system
