	I was mainly after the front side bus speed on the 3200+. When I got my 2800+, I immediately tried raising the fsb past 190. Apparently it would only allow me to do 195 fsb...and quite to my surprise, it was stable. Currently I am just doing 195x12.5.

	All cpus since week 39 in year 2003 should be locked. So you have to buy an older cpu or a mobile cpu (mobiles are unlocked and in most case very good for overclocking--> 2600MHz with 1.8V are often possible, some cpus can go 2800-2900Mhz with ~2V). xcuse my english please

	So, I'm not too pleasantly pleased with the 2800+. I'm going to end up buying the 3200+. The question is...should I get retail or just the oem chip? Which would have a better chance of being unlocked? I also heard that the green colored chips are unlocked, whereas the brown colored are locked. Is this true? Anyway, let me know please. Thanks.
