So basically im OC'ing my E8500.
Ive read the stickies but its alot of information to eat trough all at once 😛.
My system setup is as follows:
Motherboard: GA-EP45-UD3P
CPU: E8500
Cooler: Xigmatek HDT-S1283
Ram: 8GB (2*2*2GB dual channel OCZ gold PC-8500 , 5 6 6 18 timings).
GFX: Sapphire Radeon HD4870 1GB
PSU: Corsair 750W TX
What ive done so far:
increased FSB from 333 to 400 (currently running at 3,8ghz).
Set Vcore to 1,25 (currently stress testing with prime 95)
Locked my PCI-E to 100hz.
Manually put in my ram timings, FSB😀RAM ratio is at 5:6, DRAM frequency running at 4
Temperatures according to Core Temp.
Idle: 46
Load: 69 (Prime95 running at 3rd hour).
Have i forgotten something? This is my first time, and id hate to have forgotten something and have the system blow up on me in an hour or so![Smile :) :)](/data/assets/smilies/smile.gif)
thanks in advance.
