So i just got a new comp, have ran it for about 3 days and i want to start to OC my CPU. My system specs are:
Intel Quad Core Q9450
8GB of OCZ memory DDR2 1066 mhz
ASUS Rampage Formula x48 motherboard
Xigmatech HDT-S1283 with retention bracket
Artic Silver 5 thermal compound
Visiontek 4870
Antec 900 case
I had to RMA my CPU and MB because when i got it, i tried to OC it right away, and just upped the FSB to 400 mhz, without changing my vcore or anything, and when i got to windows it said my cpu was still at the stock Ghz rating, but when i was looking at my temps, they were around 70-80 degree Celsius, but now they are usually around 30-45 Celsius usually hovering around 40 for at least two cores. When OC'ing, with the mb i have, does anyone know some good settings to get to around 3.2-3.4 Ghz, and how much my temps would most likely increase?
