Sitting on 300X11 atm, interestingly when I had it at 400fsb, it was actually running 350mhz. whenever I try to go over 350, it actually gives me something near 350, like 349 347 etc.

I've read of several people getting over 520Mhz on this exact board. I'm using the F2 bios, gigabyte claim the F3 overclocks better. But I'm thinking it could be that I have no clue how to OC an intel system.

For time time being, 3.3Ghz @ 300X11 isn't bad though, 50% OC.

I'm using about 1.55V atm and its full load temp peaks at 60C, more commonly around 58C. Water temp is about 30C. I don't think I cleaned enough of the old thermal goop off the waterblock before replacing it, don't think the AS5 was spread very well, and I don't think its pressured down enough, because teh backplate is wood atm I didn't put much pressure on it, previously I had it torqued down really hard on the AMD to the point where the steel bracket had a slight bow in it.
