Heh, you are correct. It will do 3.6 GHz without breaking a sweat simply by bumping it to the 9x multiplier. No problem with the memory, it runs right at spec (1066) with the 400 MHz FSB. To be honest, I don't have any software (errr... games) that require me to OC at all! Everything I play runs beautifully at max settings even when it's set completely stock. I do like the feeling of getting something for nothing though! I'm sure I will move to 3.6 GHz for 24/7 use at some point.
