WIth the help of Hoots method of focussing and blowing cold air from outside the box onto my CPU I was able to finally reach 1.6 GHz with AXIA 1.33. My AD11 mobo is not too flexible so I can go higher in small steps and it gets unstable with my mem at higher speeds as I need to fiddle with the FSB.
My problem is that everything seems solid and stable at 1.6 (Sandra, Games, 3dMark, etc) apart from that I get an error on Prime 95's torture test. If I go back to 11.5x133 1536 Prime also works fine. So I'm stuck at below 1.6. I raised the core voltage to 1.9 V with no effect. ANybody with any ideas?
My CPU is now running at 32C idle and 38C load prime95 and gaming, thanx to Hoot's idea. I use a 92mm fan with a 70mm (2 3/4 '') pipe on it to focus cold air from outside onto my MC462 with delta. So temp is fine, actually pretty impressive (THANX HOOT!!!). Still noisy, but ah well.
