Heh, thought I'll experiment with overclocking a bit...

Pulled 2.9GHz through overvolting to like 1.6V.... Started off going well with decent speeds, but about 1/4 way through the benchmark, the fan started going loud as hell (6000RPM), temperature went to 80c, encoding speeds started falling and and everything started going to hell.  In the end, the last pass encoding speed was only 14fps which was much slower than the 16fps of my regular overclock (2.64Ghz), even though the clock was much higher.  The heat probably screwed everything over, hope I didn't permanently damage anything (I doubt it).

2.2GHz (stock) @ 1.2V  -» 13fps
2.64GHz @ 1.25V, 3000RPM fan, 45c temp  -»  16fps
2.9GHz @ 1.6V, 6000RPM fan, 80c temp  -»  14fps???
