    Nothing really limits your overclock other than your CPU. Sure, you can get a bit more of an overclock if you have a motherboard, but it doesn't limit you. As for the RAM, all you have to do is set a Memory Divider and you're set to overclock the CPU.
    That's iffy. I FX-55 might edge you out, your clock is 100Mhz faster but the FX-55 has another 512kb cache that yours doesn't. The general consensus is that another 512kb cache is like adding another 200Mhz. See what I'm saying?

    Either way my processor beats yours . :p

      Well, I ran tests and found that the 1MB L2 cache only made 100MHz of difference. Infact, I was actually a TINY bit ahead of the FX-55 :)

      Yea, yours beats mine. And unless someone overclocks, there is no way to beat yours :)
