Thanks to your help and the great threads in this forum, I have now gotten my CPU to 3.6 GHz stable. Before I tweak it any further, I have a couple more questions that I'm still not clear about:

1. Which of the following would give better performance?

(a) By increasing multiplier:
CPU @ 200 x 18 = 3600 MHz
NB @ 200 x 12 = 2400 MHz
HT Link @ 200 x 12 = 2400 MHz
RAM @ 200 / (1/4 divider) = 800 MHz (1600 MHz DDR)

(b) By increasing HTT reference clock:
CPU @ 240 x 15 = 3600 MHz
NB @ 240 x 10 = 2400 MHz
HT Link @ 240 x 10 = 2400 MHz
RAM @ 240 / (3/10 divider) = 800 MHz (1600 MHz DDR)

2. In the Phenom II overclocking threads, I've been seeing some people advise to "keep your temps below 55C". What temps are they referring to -- core temps or CPU temp?

Thanks again, and may the OC force be with you!

I would refer that to CPU, Core, Northbridge, and Southbridge temp.
AMD isn't as good as Intel in tolerating temps.
