yeah the chip is awesome. I did have it up to around 3.6 just by changing the multiplier. Then i decided to lower the multiplier and up the FSB on it. I started getting driver errors (some ATI error) i reverted to stock and all was good.

Be sure to get a good cooler though. the Phenom II doesn't like temps above 62C. Mine usually idles around 32C but can go as low as 28C with the "Cool and Quiet" thing enabled.
