    Overclocking E8400 - non-expert

    Hi, well 1.25 was too low but 1.28 seems to be stable. Having said that, I got a bit confused. 1.28Vis now set in the BIOS. CPU-Z however, says it is at 1.216V Is that a different thing or what? Sorry, if Im asking silly questions... Cheers, Marc

    Overclocking E8400 - non-expert

    Hi guys, thanks for the prompt responses. I found 1.35 also fairly high. I will now try 1.25 and then I should be always at or below 60. I dont think idle temperatures are relevant. I read that some processor sensors stay at certain temps and dont go down to something you expect. Cheers, Macc
