Here is my score, slowing increasing the clocks on everything until I find sweet spot.

Sorry for O/T yycraven...i don't remember this being discussed in another thread, but your vCore seems absurdly high for 3.7GHz on an E8400. Did you just dial down the clocks(as you mentioned at the start of your post), without lowering vCore?

I upped my GPU core and mem clocks a wee bit last night and managed 18563, time to clock it higher! I want to break 20k!

Go for it! I imagine your quad could be pushed up quite a bit for benching purposes, especially with that nice low voltage you've got it at. That can gain you a bunch of points in '06.

My HD3850 croaked last week... no chance of a warranty fix. Hurts the Credit Card, but HIS HD 4850 ordered. $194.99.My 3DMark 06 score should improve nicely.

I think anything higher on my quad will cause instability. It is limited to a 8x multi, so I am at 450FSB right now.
