I dropped my 1600 AGOIA 0213 chip in my MSI KT4VL just to see what it would do, and it is a sweet chip. Set the FSB to 170, and memory to CAS2 "ultra" (Corsair XMS3200). Ran Prime95 all night and then looped 3dmark at the same time all day today. No crashes or errors. This chip has some more left I think. The great part is that it doesn't run any hotter than the XP2000 that was in there. 43.5 deg C running P95 all night. My XP2000 is also a AGOIA but week 0211 and it is a different color. I don't remember which one is green and brown, but the 1600 will OC more than the 2000 will, and runs cooler. What a deal for 52.00. If you read the comments from people buying the 1600's on Newegg, they report pretty good success with the newer stepping too.

With the agoia 1600+ locked on an NForce 2, the FSB can still be OCed, correct?

YEs.

I just received a week 25 AROIA from Newegg. It kind of pisses me off since Newegg is advertising the processors as AGOIA steppings. I will not get too bent out of shape until I see what it will do. I am hoping that since it is a week 25, it will do well. I'll post back when my testing is complete.

How do you tell what week etc they are? I just received my third 1600+ from Newegg about 10 minutes ago. Here are the markings:

AX1600DMT3C
AROIA 0221MPM
