    There has always been a pretty big temp difference for each die, even when I had my stock cooler.

    Just proves again that overclocking is shit :P

    I am running a Phenom at lower frequency, higher voltage and I am getting better results and much lower temperatures with just air cooling :S

    I overclock my Phenom II x3 from 3.2 to 3.5 and it works just fine, and better than without overclocking, thanks. Never overheats, and I'm using air cooling.

    How does this prove overclocking is shit? I'm getting higher frequencies with only slightly higher voltages (1.44v vs 1.21v) and I'm getting very manageable temps, I'm fine with CPU temps under 80 degrees so the 1GHz OC I did is perfect.

    I'm using air cooling as well.

    My Phenom which is comparable to that CPU is doing almost double the GFlops (~42) with a lower frequency and a lot less heat (max heat was 48 which is your lowest).

    The only thing you are doing is turning energy into heat and making it more unstable.

    Except it is stable, and IIRC the IntelBurnTest displays only displays the GFlops of one core or something. Either way it's inaccurate. If your CPU is comparable to my Q6600 stock, then this Q6600 at 3.4GHz will still destroy your Phenom in every real world test.

    lets go outside...eye to eye...prime to prime

    seriously this is no competition thing. i just happen to have a 2 year old average cpu and wanted to ask the point behind overclocking.

    ts;dc
    i don't care

    You didn't ask about the point to overclocking, you said it was useless.

    Your 2 year old CPU is much newer than my 6 year old CPU.
