Well, I got kind of sick of using a 8800gt with a e6300 at stock settings so decided to do a modest cpu overclock using an Asus P5B-E. I bumped it up from 266 to 315 and all seems well. I set the vcore to 1.325 and memory to auto (not sure about this either). My temps have gone up about 3 degrees from 40 to 43 on idle and around the same during load as they were before (47-51). I'm wondering if this increase seems normal or if I should lower my vcore a bit. I once had it too low and couldn't turn on my pc so I'd like to avoid having that scare again.
And what should I set the memory voltage to? I'm using 4gb (non dual channel and only 3gb active, kinda messy
) corsair ddr2-667. Frequency is set to fsbx2 (630). The settings they give me in bios are 1.8 to 2.0. And should I not exceed a ram frequency of 667 (which would mean not going over a 333 fsb speed? I also have it clocked at 5-5-5-15 which was the default spec for the sticks.
Thanks for any help I'm a novice when it comes to this stuff.
