Athlon64 3500+ Overclocking Adventure @ PC Stats

Overclocking the Athlon64 is actually quite a challenge when you think about it, not only do you need to keep memory and HT clocks in check but LDT speed is also a factor once it starts approaching 1000Mhz.
" With air cooling, the Athlon64 3500+ maxed out at 242 MHz (2.66 GHz). Anything higher and the processor was unstable at any chipset voltage. Temperatures were a bit high for my taste too; the DFI LANParty NF4 SLI-DR motherboard reported CPU temps as high as 55 degrees Celsius."
