CPU speeds?

Thought would be interesting to know what clock speeds everyone runs.

Good news today, I bought this flexable tubing from B&Q.. think it's for plumbing. It's basically a metal spring about 5 inches diameter with plastic covering. It can bend and stretch. I put a big exhaust fan bringing air in from an open window, I put the fan in about three inches into tube to protect from rain. Then used a forget what they're called, plastic strip with teeth that tightens and locks - used that to hold fan in place on outside of tube.

Then on other end used a CPU 7000RPM fan about two inches into tube. Then put the whole thing over CPU fan and tightening the tube with another plastic tightener thing to the CPU fan. Works great dropped my temps by 15'c, was idling about 41'c before and now it's at 27'c. Acts a bit like a de-pressurized funnel, trick is to make it air tight between the fans to get the air flowing in from outside. Got to be careful and make sure the metal from the tubing doesn't touch the mobo at all, in case it shorts something.

Anyhow I can now run at 2.59ghz which is good boost from 2.4ghz I was using before.
