| just crank it to 6ghz and leave the ram speeds on auto and it will set it to however high it can safely go. |

| Dont OC with Stock HSF, It gets too hot, I could only do 30 with mine, 6GHz? Your crazy. 4GHz on the best Air Cooling, Anything above needs H2O or other methods of cooling. |

| Na pony overclock it to 6Ghz like the other boys are suggesting, you might also wanna put a frypan cover with butter or olive oil so then you can have cook bacon, steaks,ect and play crysis from the say device. Multitasking makes you kool by the power of awesomeness. |

| You shouldn't have any trouble hitting 3.0/3.2GHz on stock cooling. Always watch your temps when O.C'ing. |
