Definitely good!
My GeekBench at 32bits is only 8600+
That's only how high i can go...

Note that this is a GB-64bit score, which is normally higher than GB-32...
However, on GB-32, I get ~8740 on my stock 860 with 1600 RAM...
Check your RAM speed in BIOS.

My i7 870 @ 3.7GHz in GB 64bit. In 32bit it scores 10850 or so.

I tried running it at 4GHz, but its not stable at that OC yet. Something to work on. Pretty happy with this build since its been together less than 24 hours and I was OC'ing just a couple hours after installing Snow Leopard. iBoot and Multibeast made it stupid easy to get this up and running compared to the hoops you had to jump through in the past.

Wow impressive results there, I can't oc my 860 till I get a new cooler, the stock one just sucks, it runs idle at around 45º and 80-82º at full load (very hot!)
These are my Gb results 32 and 64bit:

OK, Here's my share on OC...

BIOS:
CPU Clock Ratio = 21x
CPU Frequency = 3.36Ghz
BLCK Frequency = 160
X.M.P = profile1
System Memory Multipler (SPD) = 10
Advanced CPU Core Features = All Enabled
The rest is = AUTO

Mac OS Installation:
MacPro3,1 smbios.plist
E\E folder: fakesmc.kext, Legacy888bHDA.kext, NVEnabler61.kext

GB32

I can't simply let go of 32bit simply because of my WiFi Card. :/
Ow men...

Did you have to change any Vcore or Vtt?

Nop... Still at AUTO.
