I think I'm about ready to take her up to 3.0

I'll post my results

w00t!

Posting at 3.0GHZ. Had to take the NB up to 1.56v and vcore to 1.43v to account for vdroop. RAM is running at DDR2 667 @ 5-5-5-15 with 1.92v. I'm going to work on getting the vcore down a bit and tighten up the ram timings. I should probably get a NB cooler while I'm at it...

EDIT:
This morning it was still going strong after 8 hours. Gonna go for 24 hours hopefully.

i made it at 3ghz (FSB 1333 at Sync Mode) with : vcore:1.315V, ram 667mhz 4-4-4-12-2T and i had a score p9803 on 3dmark vantage. But its only for a limited time... When i play games the pc restarts after sometime. I tried changing settings to make it stable but i failed. It runs stable on 2.92Ghz on sync mode and Vcore: 1.315 ram 4-4-4-12-2t

Stress test with prime95 and bump up the vcore a bit if you are still having issues.

If i put the FSB to 1333mhz (3ghz) and the Voltage is 1.315V then the pc restarts in games after sometime... If i bump up the Voltage to 1.38-1.4 Then the pc wont boot....

What is your RAM voltage set at? I have mine at 1.92v. You may also want to loosen up your timings to something like 5-5-5-15-2T.

I have my northbridge voltage at 1.56v. I had stability issues with anything lower. My RAM is at 1.92v, 667mhz, and 5-5-5-15-2t.

My vcore is set at something like 1.43v but I get horrible vdroop down to something like 1.31 under load(I'm assuming caused from a combination of the board's vdroop and my crappy PSU).
