Here's the skinny:
I have a 3.0ghz that I've managed to overclock to 3.75. I have the FSB pushed up to 250mhz(1:1). The default voltage (vcore) of the cpu was 1.475. I've upped that to 1.6. I have pc4000 (ocz platinum eb) memory @ 3-2-3-7 @ 2.8v. I have several questions to ask because i have to understand where I may be going wrong.
1) What is the MAX voltage for this CPU?
2) I never crash out of any programs with this setting, yet when I run prime95, stress prime 2004 they always err out (cpu, ram, and blend tests). Shouldn't my RAM at pc4000 be able to handle it's default settings (which they are) without erring out? Even memtest86 errs after a while at this setting.
3) Do I need to use the memory divider? and if so, what setting?
Thanks for helping a somewhat noob!
