OC noob

[Bosse]

Hi

I tried to set my 2500+ @ 3200+ and everything ran smooth until i started to play war3. i get bluescreen (to fast to read) and the computer restarts, ehhh

i use orginal vcore. I need to raise vcore ??
full load temp 54c. I need more cooling ?

or something else ??

i guess i cant raise vcore when temp already is @ 54c!

well........... need help !!!

please tell us your computer specs.

I hate Computers! My P4 2.4C won't go above 3840mhz. My Sapphire 9800pro core/mem speed won't go above 490/790. I really hate computers!

my problem started when i oc, and when i set it @ 2500+ again the problem is no more.

2500+ A7N8X/DLX V2.0 , 2 x corsair 512 XMS LL, GF 3, 350w powersupply ehhh and more crap.

I'm pretty sure it's that generic power supply, get an Enermax 450 or something before overclocking, your power supply's too crappy.

hmm thx but im not to sure about that, i think 350w should be enough. anyone else who run a 2500+ @ 3200+ and then what powersupply r u using ???

I got my old Barton chip to 2640mhz, and I had 450mhz enermax power supply.

Its not just how many watts the PSU pumps out, its the quality of it too. Friend my PSU this past weekend and got an enermax 350, my old one was a generic 350w, and its running fine but i havn't done any OCing on it yet, may this weekend dunno yet.
