my insanity hasnt kicked in yet. but what kind of pump are you using?? im thinking the more flow the better. and im supprised your only getting 2.5ghz out of a xp3200 my 3000 does 2.62 @1.95 i havent really seen any stability inprovement @ a 2.0vcore or higher just a bunch of extra heat. and maybe its just my chip but i can ususally get better OCs with lower multi's untill i reach my ram's limitations
