2135 is the max this CPU did for me, there wasn't any stability past 2100 mhz for real use.

multipliers above 12.5 were locked like usual.
CPU was prometeia cooled, used in an 8RDA, no benchmarks or anything, and the CPU is getting banished to my second PC tommorow after I put my XP 2100 back in, and get back up to 2.7 ghz with 1.775 volts on the core.
I love that CPU.

this XP 2000 thoroughbred, isn't so bad, it did do 500 or so Mhz more then default, but it's not very useful.
it runs at 55C with my volcano 9, 47c with watercooling and wasn't very overclockable when compared to the XP 1700, 1800 and 2100 thoroughbreds.

maybe it's cause its a "RIRGA"
either way, I'll be looking forward to replacing it soon.
 
the RIRGA stepping is supposed to be a quite bad one. I haven't really heard of any really good OC's with the 2000+ either, so maybe it's a combination of both?
