How much could I overclock it with stock cooling?
bigdawgfox has his overclocked to a 3400+ which is quite amazing, mostly though people will OC to a 3200+ then stop
do you have sufficient airflow through your system? and what are your current temps?
You can technically overclock it as much as you want.
But most people I know easily overclock it to 3200+ levels, and still retain temperatures in the 50C range, with average case cooling.
As I have said before, BigDawg's Temps are umm, on the cold side. Sometimes I wonder if ASUS makes the temps lower than they are.
Speculation and Cospiricies, but perhaps im just a suspicious person.
Could be..but mine runs at 2310Mhz fine. You can get it to 2.2Ghz, which is a 400Mhz overclock with stock cooling and decent airflow, GO FOR IT!
Wasn't yours at about 44 C with only oc to a 3200+?Quote:

I'm going to build a pc with a 2500+ Barton in then, is ur's stock cooling dawgfoxx?
If you buy the retail chip you get the stock heat sink and fan. That is the one bigdawg uses, yes.Quote:

just remember, bigdawg mounted an 80mm case fan on his stock heatsink. and bigdawg also has 5 other case fan keeping good airflow inside his case. so keep those in mind,
Ok thanks for your help, I think thats what I'll get cause I don't wanna pay like double the price of a 2500 for a 3200 when I can just o/c a 2500.
