Im sure the stepping is the same as yours mate, i got mine from phil as well..
volts are 1.55
btw, ive never found that burning in thing does anything once the paste has been cycled a few times..
I got a great mounting on this one..
there is no seal string on the bottom of the baseplate or the cool head, only around the sides to seal it. Its risky, but if you can do it right you get great contact.. also there is hardly any paste.
asus probe is reporting cpu temp of -14 when idle (forgot to check under load
). Not sure how accurate that probe is mind you..wish i had some decent ram to play with now
but i gotta say gaming with this 2 gig is sweeeet.

Looks that way mate - CPU lottery on the 57's, McMads a winner.
I heard ballistix 1GB sticks can go up to 250 HTT/FSB @ 2.5-3-3-6 @ 2.9v??
That being the case you can adjust the multiplier to give you a great overclock 250*15? or deffo 250x14 and that my friend will alows you to enter benching heaven - certainly give us 2x512MB boys a run for our money.
Alternatively slap in a ram divider to help you max out your overclock without stretching the ram to the limit which again = benching heaven.
Sounds like a great set-up.
Fatty mate - suicide sealing? I love it!!

Very impressive mate!
I've just set mine up in the V2000/R507 Mach II and its currently sitting pretty at 3.5ghz 1.55v stable. Might try and up the vcore in clockgen by a tad to get stability at 3.6.

burning in a cpu has no affect on clocks wat so eva and is a total waste of time, burning in is only effective on ram

I shall try mine now - anyone got a link to clockgen for the Asus A8N Deluxe? As you know it tops out at 1.55v (overvolts slightly) but I am 3.5 stable. Will get into windows at 3.6 but not for benching.

people who have been using cpu burn-in seem to be having good results over at XS.
