Im currently running at 2311mhz with 1.8 volts using the rig listed in my profile. for those of u with the 2500+/nf7-s 2.0 combo, what voltage do u use to reach speeds of 2400mhz?
 
My thoroughbred 2800 is very similar - 2.3ghz is 1.8vcore 2.4ghz is 1.85vcore 2.5ghz is 1.9vcore..
 
I tried 220x11 (2.42ghz) @ 1.95 volts and 3-3-3-9 timings and Prime crashed after a minute. Any suggestions?

my 2500+ simply won't pass 2.3ghz even with 1.95v. How could you do this.
Well you should first post the specs of your rig. Could be the memory holding you back or not enough cooling

How long have you been running that rig in that voltage?

Ruling out the very likely possibility of your chip reaching its max, the only recourse I could think is to try different bioses. Granted, there's a gazillion different versions out there and its understandable that you'd feel discouraged to try most of them. If you feel an ounce of will to try some, you could refer to the sticky by Sentential about which bios version have the most positive outcome for which hardware config.
 
hammers right,
i have a couple of twinmos pc3200s, and D22A1BK-R2-4247 s fine with pretty low temperature.
D10_4247_C18_ED is also stable but mech runs hotter with it.
i can suggest you to read through that sen's post, and take the risk.
for ex, i could never boot more than 220mhz with abit's d25 bios.
every bios setting has an effect on stability and fsb tops.
some of the important ones i remember; all cachables disabled, spectrums disabled, cpu disconnect disabled etc.
