right now im running a 2100+ TB-B (stock voltage) 1.6v @ 1995 (190*10.5) i have a Thermaltake volcano 7+ HSF cpu temps are around 50C full load one 120mm exhaust fan in an Antec 3700SLK case

crucial pc2700 2x256 @ 6-3-3-2.5 2.63v
on a 8RDA board.

i cant seem to get XP to load when the cpu is over 2.0 ghz i even tried upping the voltage to 1.75, i think i got into OS with that but ran Prime95 for about 30 secs b4 getting a warning.

should i just leave well enough alone and be happy with what im getting for my current setup? i know everyones mileage varies. but im seeing you guys pushing your 1700+'s faster than my 2100+ can do. im jealous and just want to squeeze every morsel out of this machine!

is it going to hurt the ram to up its voltage more? could that be the problem? im still a relatively new overclocker. just hoping to get some thoughts/advice from you guys.
