So I'm running an AMD 1090T hex core 3.2 with 3.6 turbo speed. I would like to overclock the processor and do it properly with some help from people here @ NNG. A few I know run the same chip and might be able to help me out with similar specs and guides. My current temps are 22c @ IDLE and around 29c @ LOAD with a water cooled heat sink set on LOW. I'm aiming for as close to 4.0 as possible

Did you disable the turbo boost and instead just set the base clock higher? Or did you increase the turbo boosted speed?
Did you adjust NB clock at all? I'm @ a stable 3.9 CPU with 40C on the load. However the 2.0 NB is a bottleneck. Will be attempting this tonight after some gaming.
Additional info. I no longer show "cpu" next to frame rates and I have gotten my FPS up from 20-30 to 39-50. Very happy with the results form just the core clock. Will post additional results tonight after Northbridge
Keep an eye on your NB temps. Tom's Hardware usually has very good info about overclocking just about everything. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/forum-29.html
