hi everyone thanks for reading my subject so
you can see my rig below on my signature though my i7 930 is running on stock speed and im thinking to overclock it with Cooler Master V8 to 3.6 GHZ without disabling the hyper threading technology so any thoughts will be helbfull and thanks all again
 
first i would like to thank you for replying
second anybody knows what the temps well be because i was thinking to buy liquid cooling but unfortunally my case dosent support that
 
The settings I used to get a 24/7 oc with my I7 920 dO

**The following 5 options need setting for each stick of ram**
The following must be the cas latency of your ram
CAS Latency Time 9
tRCD - 9

For a overclock to 3.5ghz on a i7 930 the cm v8 is a great cooler so u would not be needing liqued cooling

And the safe temps for your CPU on load should no be more than 72c under prime 95 that is
