Phft, It's a stupid idea I know, but Andi is convinced that his XP1800 is "better" than my XP2000. I think he must be retarded or something.

Andi thinks you can get an XP1800 to go faster than an XP2000, which is an utterly ludicrous idea seeing as the XP2000 is superior in every way. I have read this countless times, including on Hexus. He hasn't produced a shred of evidence, despite much searching the Internet by both of us.
The real reason he says this is because I have an XP2000 and he's jealous. Come on Andi, we both know it.

At twenty to four in the morning I'm not entirely sure what the two of you are arguing about, BUT it's quite interesting nonetheless. Keep it up.
Here's my overclocking 2p: sort out your /system/ temp, ie get a half decent case fan, or even better an aluminium case and a decent fan. Doesn't have to be very noisy if you have a good heatsink. Second, get a good heatsink (IMHO Zalman stuff rules). Third, um, be quite rich and prepared to fry one or two processors in search of your optimum level.
There was I'm quite sure a fourth point I was going to make but I am very, very drunk so I ain't going to...

Cooling, Eejits. Why are you avoiding the question?
Also remember, individual CPUs vary greatly. Some respond very well, some not at all.

A PC, surprisingly.
Using what, exactly?
I've never run my 1800 at 2.1GHz, put people have and it was perfectly stable.
Yes, and I'm sure Andi's 1800XP at 2.1ghz was stable too...

Yes, but I got the impression he wasn't really pushing that XP2000 at all. Afterall, Rar's up to 1.76 by just upping the FSB (or whatever), no extra cooling or voltage stuff, and Phil says he can get it higher anyway.
