Just bumped up my Duron 750 to 950(9.5x 100) the v-core is set at 1.85 yet in pc health in the bios and Fuzzy Logic 3 it showes the v-core is 1.93. Anyway this is the highest I can get it stabile so far, it idles at 41C and stresses it never goes above 44C is that ok or are the temps too high? Also I tested stability by running things I would normaly use games, internet, and what not then ran Prime95 for a few hours and then ran 3DMark 2000 on top of it, seem good enough or should I do anything else? Thanks.

You should be able to bump your FSB up over 100 though to add a few more Mhz. I'm running mine at 106 and you have better memory than I do.

Anytime I bump up the fsb, the system is not 100% stable. Up to 103 will run in Windows but I always get booted out while running 3DMARK2000, 105 wouldnt even load windows. I'm gonna try 101 and 102 again, but have doubts. Any idea why, how bout putting arctic silver under the northbridge chipset heatsink? Think heats the issue? Oh well I'm happy at 950 but more is always better I'll just keep messin with it. Thanks
