Great info.Thanks

Have a Gig. ds3, e6400 oc'd to 2800mhz. The temp in the bios reads 44-45c idle. CoreTemp reads 50-51c idle. Question: Is the bios reading the outside area of the cpu and CoreTemp is reading the inside area of the cpu? Is The CoreTemp reading the one to be concerned with while oc'ing? Have...

Thanks. I was leaning toward that cooler from what Iv'e been reading on the forum.

Have a mid tower case and want to replace stock cpu cooler(intel e6400). Have a ga- 965p-ds3 mobo. Would like a recommendation for a cooler that does not require mobo removal. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Will only do mild ocing(2800-3000). Have cpu at 2800,stable(2hr. Orthos...

I got a problem. Loaded optimized defaults and only got 2hrs. 14 min running Prime95 torture test(blend). Bad memory? How best to check ram?

Got my gig 965p-ds3 oc'd to 2.96. Stability testing for cpu only, works fine. Using blend in Prime 95 or Orthos,am only able to achieve 3 hrs max. Using 2 512's Mushkin EM2-6400 5-5-5-12 1.9. Tried: 5-5-5-15;4-5-4-12;2 .1v things got worse, errors showed up quicker. Has anyone have...

I Have a x1900xt with an Ultra 2G 600 watt psu. It has 37a on the 12v rail.($79) The dual 12v Ultra 600w model has 20a and 18a(i believe they are additive) $79 The recommended psu requirement for the x1900xt is 450 w with 30a on the 12v rail.(its assumed the card is on a fully loaded system)...

Thanks gobucks it went very well. Dropiing the multi down to 1:1 was the key. Easily upped the fsb to 350 and got 2.8Ghz without any problem. Did not change anything else.Very happy with the results,(did change cpu vcore from auto to 1.325.) Temp of cpu went up a few degrees 36C to 40C.

Thanks a ton. Will try out your advice. Will get back a little later with results.

Thanks will try. I am wondering about the memory . I read the ratio should be 1:1.

Got a new pc: GA965-DS3,e6400,Mushkin EM2 (2-512) DDR2 800mhz,X1900XT,Ultra 600w. Want to oc my cpu to 2.5-2.8 hopefully with stock voltage. Have the F6 bios. Right now everything is at optimized default. CPUZ voltage reads 1.168v but fluctuates every 15-20 secs to 1.200 and 1.328,but always...
