You have to give more system specs than that. X2 3800 brisbane or what, what type of cooling do you have etc. Motherboard and cpu aren't everything.

I got my x2 3600 to 3ghz stable, but 2.85 is where I like it, so the 3800 should be able to do somewhere around that range also.

I use a rosewill Z3 with shin-etsu x23 grease on it. I bought the rosewill cuz it was cheap and this was a while b4 I got my brisbane. Works great though since my load is 52-57 prime95 and generally just playing video games (counter strike source / wc3 ) 35-39. I have 7 case fans tho since I have a stacker 830

Mine's at 2.5 as well but the people I live with has a cat and the hair cause my pc to get dirty real quickly. Load temps with my big typhoon is 44 deg C.
