Heatsink: Thermaltake Contac 29
CPU: Intel i7 860
Motherboard: MSI P55-GD65
Version: 1.A0 (Latest Version)
RAM: DDR3 1333mhz 4096mb
Timings: 9-9-9-24
Temp Reading Software: Realtemp
That's all the info i can pull off the top of my head, if anymore is needed, please jsut say and i'll be happy to provide some =)
On to the problem. Using Intel Turbo Boost: When idling i recieve around 22 degrees celsius which is generally speaking a very good temperature to be dealing with. When running ORTHOS for half an hour my maximum temperature was 69 degrees celsius. So clearly everything is stable. The reason i use Intel Turbo Boost is beacause, even though i have good temperatures, any time i try to overclock Bus frequency speeds past the standard 133 mhz, i recieve a BSoD. Maximum i can get is increasing to 143, at 144, not matter what my temp is, i always get a BSoD. So i went on to experiment and found what was stopping from advancing past that stage. I finally did some testing and got to my OS desktop screen with a bus speed of 191, 175 and 185 all on different occasions. Naturally the first thing i did was check the temps. On all occasions, my temperature was around 90 degrees celsius. A few seconds later, i get a BSoD.
I've even tried copying settings i've seen from other people who have the exact same set-up as me. Still BSoD!
Where does this massive jump in temperature come from? I've tried MANY different voltages all to no avail. I've reapplied Arctic Silver 5 many times and re-fitted my heatsink several times and cleaned the miniscule amount of dust in it too many time to count just to make sure everything was done correctly! I also have a good airflow throught the computer.
In short, why is my computer incapable of overclocking, when my temps are 21 degree CPU when many people can get 4ghz+ on cpu's that idle on 38 degrees+? Am i missing something?
Thanks sooo much in advance!
P.S. sorry for being a total noob! XD
EDIT: Now I'm getting BSoD's at less than 30 degrees and at Fail-Safe deafaults >_>. I really don't think this is temperature related anymore! But i can't move the thread to the Intel section. I apologize!! >.<
