AMD X6 OC - Please post your results

I have a hard time figuring our the ram speed. What is 487.6 in 1:2 in real DDR3 ram speed? Does it match the 10700DDR3 i have?

Ran prime95 x64 for 15 hrs by mistake, forgot I had started it and came home later to find it still running. Boinc had also started (my screen saver) running doing SETI and Rosetta on a 1 hr switch. My temps were 49 C (120.2 F) on the MB sensor, 38 C (100.4 F) on the core 0 sensor. GPU's were at 60 C ( 140 F) and 63 C ( 145.4 F). I did have Folding@home paused.

I'll get some screenies of my 1055t @ 3.96 soon, I'll need to remove a 570 to get back to that speed though..

Heh heh, that's one of the reasons I'm at 3.9 Ghz, it's stable, runs F@H GPU and CPU, Seti, and Rosetta and I can be gaming without it crashing. I like to have a lot of crap running and leave Folding going even while gaming , both the GPU and CPU clients, because I forget to disable them.
Runs fairly cool to, higher than 4Ghz gets my room to warm during the spring and summer especially when gaming

Hey guys got my AMD Phenom II X6 1090T today with a very cheap Gigabyte GA880GM-UD2H. I have done limited overclocking as i don't want to push my 600w PSU but wow i am blown away by these processors.

I had a QX9650 @ 4.33GHz w/ 1.55 till it died along with the P5N-D due to my power supply which it too died. But damn this CPU is so powerful i have left Turbo core on and using the default 3.2GHz but when turbo kicks in goes to 4.2GHz and the best thing is i have NOT even touched the voltage!! So 3 cores run at 4.2GHz and the other 3 downclock, games play amazingly.

I also have HT running at 2.6GHz each way for a total of 5.2GHz rather then the default 4GHz. Have not benched many games but in Dawn of war 2 i got 62fps on my QX9650 @ 4.33GHz and the Phenom II X6 @ 4.2GHz scores 66fps.

Best £215 i have spent and thats for the CPU, motherboard and 4GB PC12800 Ram.

Turbo core is excellent! i can have my system cool and quiet yet very high performance when needed. After all games use 2 threads mainly which is on CPU 1 and 2. I have ran prim 95 on 6 cores at 3.2GHz as turbo core does not kick in but yet windows is still very responsive as if i am not even running the program yet all cores are under 100% load.

When i had it first setup videos would be out of sync and pause intermittedly. So uninstalled the Audio drivers from Gigabytes site and used the ones from Guru 3D and completly cured it.

I am so tempted to snag one of these because of cost/performance - Got to make myself wait to see what's coming from both camps though.

I have further been able to tweak it so it runs at 3.92GHz and with a voltage bump for turbo hits 4.5GHz on top of that have cool n quiet enabled so throttles down to 800MHz and 1.15v when doing little or nothing
