Re: cant overclock to more than 900 mhz

Yep I think you guys covered this. While most chips are able to reach 1ghz or more without issues (I'm running 1ghz right now), many of them can't get very high and remain stable. This is because these chips are tested to be stable at 600mhz and no higher. They aren't saying after 600 they will blow up, but they only test to 600 and make it stable for sure until 600. Beyond that its a guessing game. Some chips can handle it, some can't.
