Very new to OC. I am not looking to OC for maximum but instead for a safe setup that can be used 24/7.
P5N-E SLI; Q6600 (GO); XMS DDR-2 PC6400 2x1GB; Corsair 750W PSU; BFG 8800 GT OC 512MB; Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
I currently have CPU Clock running at 2542 MHz (FSB 1130) and memeory Speed DDR2-816Mhz for a ratio of 13:9. All voltages are set to auto in Bios.
The system appears to be steady. Have run Everest stress test for 1 hour; 3D Mark (at performance level); Prime95 for 2 hours and the system parameters during all of this were:
TEMPS Min Max
MB 39 41
CPU 38 50
Core 1 43 60
Core 2 42 57
Core 3 43 60
Core 4 39 57
GPU 56 80
VOLTAGES
CPU Core 1.22 1.31
I used the pre-applied grease on the Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro during the installation (I have a tube of the AC MX-2 available and as well Antec Formuula 5) .
My question: Does this appear to be a safe, moderate over-clock setup or are there factors that I should be aware of if I leave this in place full time?
I appreciate your comment and advice.
Thanks,
Arne
