Overclocking i7 950 on ASUS Sabertooth X58

[broken_Naols]

Wassup guys! Its been a while since I posted!

Thought I would update you with my latest OC adventures.

Current setup...

CPU - I7 950 D0 stepping
MoBo - ASUS Sabertooth X58
RAM - 8GB corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz 9-9-9-24
PSU - Antec Tru-Power 650W
Case - Fractal Design Define XL R2 'Black Pearl'
Cooler - Thermalright True 120 with Silverstone fan.
OS - Samsung 120GB SSD
Couple of 500GB WD HDD's

So my mate built this system a few years ago. (Well I built it for him) He had some problems with memory mabe a year later, so went and bought a new Mobo CPU RAM combo and sold me the i7, X58 Board and RAM. of the 2 sticks of Super Talent RAM, 1 had a burnt out pin. And only 3 of the slots on the Mobo acualy work..

So I bought a spare 4gb stick and that was that. Didn't really OC much.

Fast Forward to today.(Ish)

So one day a couple of weeks ago I decided to check the temps, a vert toasty 90* + on all 4 cores... I open the side case to a dead CPU fan.
So I shut it diwn and put on the old silverstone fan (Real loud)
I Pick up the 8GB Coarsair RAM second hand from a local shop.

I have spent the past week reading guides and stuff to get to grips with the i7 setups again.

My ultimate goal for this is 4.2 but I have struggled to get it stable at that setting, This is where I am just now. (Vcore is under 1.35 but no longer reported by CPU-z.)
I'll post BIOS screenshots soon, and more updates to come.

So, Finally got it stable at 4.2ghz
Before I was getting a '0x9c' BSOD. But this time I got a 0x101 BSOD.... So upped the Vcore a little.
