A friend of mine has a new computer system that he wishes to later OC. But for now it is not even stable at stock settings.
He has a GigaByte GA-EG31M-S2 mobo, and an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 CPU.
Core Temp reports idle temps of 55'
using the BIOS' own [performance mode] settings, his FSB is 200MHz, memory is 800Mhz (PC2-6400), multiplier is 12
He is using a stock heatsink at this time.
The computer crashes when he runs anything, which I believe is due to heat buildup on the CPU.
The BIOS does have a [standard mode] setting, but I am not sure what the numbers are for that mode -
I can only assume (from the manual) the following: FSB: 333, memory: 800, multiplyer of 7
Anyone offer any suggestions/help, please?
