jw, Yes I tried it and it crashed my system and I had to wipe the drive and re-install Windows. Only thing is, now I'm not sure it was the overclocking that did it: Recently I changed the BIOS setting "allow video ram caching" to enable and started getting the same symptoms on my machine that preceded the crash, and I'm thinking that I may have had the bios set that way when I overclocked. At the time, I thought it was my memory causing the problems since I have a very low-grade 66MHz stick in there. The 300A I got is a pre-tested/guaranteed-450@2.0v from Minotaur (it's a SL32a) and I didn't bump the voltage at all when I ran at 450. Maybe I'll try it again soon on a spare drive just to see if it works. And yes, I have the BH6. Ordered right when the BX6-2 came out and probably could have switched my order, but I'm not like that <g>. (Even though it probably wouldn't have bothered Jon a bit). wily
