I'm thinking of upgrading my RAM from 2GB@DDR2-667 to the 3.25GB limit and maximum speed the board can take, so that would take 2 × 2GB DDR2-800 unbuffered and without ECC, right? Are there any other important specifications to look after or could I just as well buy the most cheapest? That would...

What is the difference between the CPU and the cores temperatures?

Than I have to set the SpeedFan offset at +5.

To calibrate the CPU (Pentium E5200) and mobo (ASRock 4coreDual-Sata2 R2.0) temperatures, I regarded the values in the bios as true. I compared a number of readings from the bios and SpeedFan to calculate SpeedFan's average offset. Now I'd like to read true core temperatures in SpeedFan...

I don't feel comfortable with physically modding my hardware, so I'll just regard 3,1GHz as my system's maximum. I'm not a hardcore gamer anyway, so I don't really need more performance, I just don't like to wait to long for my PC to boot ;) and it's just fun trying to make it work as fast as...

Is there a way to change the voltages? My core voltage is 1.2v now. How did you get it to run at 3,67GHz?

I've got the same mobo and CPU as you have, francisA. (R2.0 board with the Pentium E5200) You can read your bios version on the first page of the bios setup, somewhere above the CPU info. Today I've been experimenting to overclock the CPU for my first time. Now I've set the bus speed at...
