Hey all!
This is my first overclock , on my newish system.
My problem is this:
I'm trying to get 4Ghz but I cant seem to it stable. (~422x9.5)
I dont know at which Vcc to max out - Im currently on 1.4 in bios , 1.328 in CPU-Z , is that where I should stop or can I go higher?
I havent changed anything besides FSB and DDR timings(lower).
I have options that I haven't changed that might be affecting this:
FSB overvoltage and MCH overvoltage.
In my current state , prime95 gets an error about 20 minutes and the temps max at ~70C.
My spec:
E8500
Gigabyte P35-DS3 (rev 2.1)
Corsair XMS2
OCZ Vendetta 2
Case W/3 Fans.
