CPU-Z is a nice little freeware tool which allows you to extract system information from your PC such as:
- Processor name and vendor
- Core stepping and process
- Processor package
- Processor current core voltage
- Internal and external clocks, clock multiplier
- Partial overclock detection
- Processor features, including supported instructions sets.
- L1 to L3 cache information : location, size, speed, technology.
- Motherboard information : name, vendor, BIOS, chipset, memory, AGP.
- Memory information : size, type, timings, specifications.
CPU-Z is also the tool that produces those nice little screenshots that all the hardware review sites use to show their overclocked system. the download zip package also includes a second .exe file that is the cache latency calculator (it used to be in the main program but is now a standalone).
If you haven't tried it before, go grab yourself a copy from here (http://www.cpuid.com/)

Nice find be usual with my new cpu and mb tho i guess you cant really overclock a 3200+ amd barton that much?
Yeah 3200 pretty much at it limits,2400 about max I would say. :)
I agree, 2.4-2.5 with good air cooling is probably topping out. After that you need some serious volts and even more serious cooling.
