Currently running the following:
Q6600 G0 1.325 VID @ 8x425 for 3.4 GHz
1000 Watt Galaxy PSU
2x 8800 GTS 512 Mb (stock to check for cpu stability issues)
XFX 780i
Soundblaster X-Fi
4 Gb OCz DDR3 1600 (at stock atm)
BlackIce GTX 480 (w/8x 230 cfm fans [PUSH,PULL]
D'tek Fusion V2 Cpu Block
DDC 5 Liang Variable Speed Pump
Voltages:
Vcore: 1.4
FSB: 1.4
NB: 1.3
Everything else is still on auto.
Temps at above specs:
IDLE: 32\34\27\30
LOAD: 37\39\34\36
CASE: -5
NB: 36\46 (Idle,Load)
So obviously temps arn't a issue here. I can run all day long with no problems at 3.4 the problem comes when I go for 3.6.
I bump up all the voltages to their greenzone maxes, except Vcore at 1.55 and FSB at 1.5. I load vista fine, but after a few minutes of being idle or whatever I do, I get screen freezes, bsod's coantaining nvidia issues. It leads me to think somehow my PCI slots arn't getting enough power. Anybody have any idea's.
On a less important note, for some reason 9x 400 = 3.6 GHz in windows, but 8x 450 = 4.05 GHz, but not important I don't think. I've tried the 9x 400 and I have same stability issues, so I doubt its my fsb cap.
