Ok I can only get my P4 3.207 to 3.367 and I hope to get it around 3.8-4.0 GHZ.

I'll post a cpu-z pic in a sec.

    I hate to say it, but you ain't gonna get no 4Ghz from a prescott on air. I max my 3.0E @ 3.75Ghz with H20 and my board is vmodded.

    If you do succeed I gotta know your secret.

    Also just a suggestion: i would get rid of that Aspire psu and get something that's more reliable like:

    Fortron
    Sparkle
    Enermax
    or if you have the xtra cash a PC Power & Cooling.

    Those aspire psu's are well known for mega instability problems and could very well damage the board and other components.
