Thread Starter 
... because I can't OC my effing box any higher than 2.3Ghz without problems.

Freaking stepping CG A64
Lanparty UT nF3 250Gb
OCZ Gold PC466

It does not matter id I use the older Raidmax psu or the X-connect, it is the same crap.

What the hell am I doing wrong before I sell the whole lot and get myself a freaking Mac!

Try throwing in an 80 Watt Tec between the waterblock and chip. I bet you might get some more out of it, also are you sure your ram's not limiting you?? I had problems when I didn't have my tec, like no x9 multiplier on <240fsb, but now up to 256 after Tec.

I'm getting 32C idle... I do not think I really need a TEC. The only thing I have not tried is the Oskar bios, but the disk came damaged, so I do not have a flashing utility.

Anyone want to attach it to an email and send it to me?

Just do the bootable Diamond Flash thing, just as easy. There's a possibility the chip just won't do anymore, or maybe you've got a junk board.

I can vouch for the 9/14 version, I've been using them since I got my rig and they gave me a nice overclock and overall good stability so I havent upgraded to the later ones.
