Overclocking
For overclocking we used the great AMD Overdrive-software which allows tweaking all sorts of voltages and clock speeds on the fly.
970

AMD claims they've tweaked the 970 a bit when compared to the earlier high-end 965 BE, which helps keep the TDP at the same 125 watts and also should help overclock the new CPU a bit further. In our tests, however, the 970 proved to be very similar with the 965 BE C3, and also hit 4 GHz with ease, but refused to go much further than that.
1100T

This is the first time we have a 6-core on our test bench, but due to the 1100 also being in the Black Edition series of processor, it's really no different from the quad-cores. After some multiplier and Vcore-tweaking we hit 3,8 GHz at 1,35 V. This is a 500 MHz rise over the stock clock speed and should definitely show on the performance tests.
1075T

The 1075 is the only non-BE CPU here, and required rising the HTT rather than multiplier. We eventually got the HTT up to 245 MHz, which at 15x multiplier resulted in a clock speed of 3675 MHz, or a gain of 675 MHz over the stock speed. The voltage used here was the same 1,35 V as with the 1100.
