Nope, the benchmarks are the same, about 103 for my Opteron 185 o'clocked to 2x2,86 GHz. I use Xbench rather often for testing purposes. Increasing the vltage doesn't speed up the CPU, you have to increase the multiplicator or the bus frequency. I bumped my Opteron up to 3,03 GHz on zephyroth 10.5.1, newer ersions crash at this speed. Actually I'm using a bus frequency of 220 MHz, standard is 200.

I didn't use the JaS patched image, I don't like his work. I'm using the original 10.5.2 image and updated to 10.5.3 using Zephyroth's AMD updater.
