Okay I tried: vcore: 1.45v NB: 1.39v RAM: 2.08v 1700FSB still wouldn't boot into windows, the little windows scroller just keeps scrolling. Which is totally not the error I'd expect. A BSOD, lockup or non-post. THAT, I can understand. But eternal loading? Weird. However, 1600FSB...

Question, why would increasing the ram voltage make a difference if my RAM is unlinked and running at 800Mhz (spec). Why should I increase the voltage there?

Chip was retail. Neither the RAM nor the NB is too hot to the touch. But I have tons of cooling just in case. I have an Antec Nine Hundred case. It's half wire mesh, and has 2 front, 1 rear and 1 side fan that are 12cm each, a big fan on the top (PSU is on the bottom), that's 20 cm. And I...

It doesn't like NB 1.56v. I've tried it before, when I do a cold boot, sometimes it refuses to POST for half an hour. 1.35 vCore runs FSB 1333 just fine. I've tried up to 1.5v when going up to 1500FSB and 1600FSB. Didn't help

Mine hangs too sometimes. I've ran it stable for days at a certain speed, then one day, it just won't boot, won't even post. Bloody irritating. Okay, I tried 1700. With vcore at 1.40 and NB at 1.39. I tried vcore 1.35 first, but that just BSOD on windows load. But at 1.40 windows would...

I got it to reboot. I unplugged the PSU from the wall and just let it sit for a while. Then rebooted and at least got the normal error for overclocking too much. I set if back to 1333FSB and I think I'll just stay there, I only got a 5% boost in 3DMark from going to 1600 from 1333 anyway...

Just stock cooling for the CPU. My basement is pretty cool and the Antec Nine Hundred case has great cooling. Okay. New problem. I turned off the PC, without incident, then i attached a small 80mm fan that points directly at the NB. I plugged it in and turned on the PC. I powered up...

Okay, I ran othors for 10 minutes, my CPU temp peaked at 47C and never went any higher. My MB temp peaked at 34C. I took my case side off as it was still running and touched the NB heatsink. It was warm, but not hot. I'd estimate it was about 50C, tops, maybe lower. But it wasn't hot enough...

Hi, it's me, akaliel. Had to create a new login, the old password is in my work email. Anyway, I'm on the overclocked PC right now. I got it at 1600FSB. I'm running 1.45 for Vcore, and 1.56v for NB. I tried 1.39v and it posted but would lock up within a minute. 1.56 seems alright so far...
