I closed my L1 bridges now (properly this time :) ) But I am not 100% sure of what to do when it comes to testing it...

What do u do after u have changed the multipliers and/or FSB? what kinds of stability tests are good?

it runs pretty fine now (t-bird 750@900 so far...) , temps hasn't got up more than 1 degree C.

I've been checking my temps at a regular basis while using several apps before I upped the multipliers one step. But is this sufficent enough?

I like to run some sandra tests to compare my new readings to my old ones, then run a round of 3Dmark and if all goes well, I go play Quake 3 online for about an hour. If all that runs well then I go up another notch and do it all over again.

What works for me and doesn't take all that long is a two part process. First, run Prime95 Torture until the cpu temperature has not changed for 10 minutes. Then run 3D Mark 2001 and if it makes it all the way through, chances are you have a successful OC setup.
