Well got my AMD64 system set up. Couldn't load in Windows 64 yet, couldn't find my CD at work, and the download from Microsoft isn't working for me Sad

Well decided to try the Overclock utility that came with the MSI motherboard (went with MSI to save $100 instead of the Gigabyte).

Got it to overclock from 2.0Ghz to 2.33Ghz with the Stock OEM HD/Fan. About a 16-17% increase. How's that for the overclocking?

A good start I would say. With some more heat protection you could go higher but I would be very careful. BTW I need a pic of you

I haven't paid much attention to A64 overclocking at XR, but you can look through the overclocking section here:
