After a long and mostly fruitless battle, I must conclude that the Phenom 8750 Triple-Core was manufactured with extremely little overhead. Oh yeah, I fought it. I raged through the BIOS, specifically Gigabyte's MB Intelligent Tweaker (M.I.T.) page. I went easy at first, as every overclocker should do. But every time I tried to really push the envelope, the CPU pushed back. Three cores of didn't-want-to-budge fury in my face, I finally gave up.
