It seems to be common to get the 2.0ghz chips like 3200+ to 2.2ghz.
Presumably the rating then would be 3400+ or maybe 3500+. BTW, it appears the Athlon64 ratings are more accurate than the Barton PR ratings when compared to the newer P4s, so this is doubly good. rms

And don't forget that the A64 has a locked multiplier, so the FSB is the only way to overclock it. The FX series is not multiplier locked from what I hear. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.html
