Hello all I am new to the forum but been a long time anandtech reader. Anyway here my questions.
I have the 2800+ of the Athlon64 socket 754 and i been experimenting with oc'ing on my vnf-250 mobo. Some question that concern me or just wonders are
1) What is a good temperature for a air-cool(Stock heatsink and fan) Is 55-65*C an ok running CPU during Prime95?
2) How safe is it to up the Voltage to the ram ? i have Corsiar 512MB Value CAS 2.5? And is it even wroth playing with?
3) So far i got 2100MHz stable with 233 CPU Speed and a 1 to 1 ratio for the DRAM. The only thing i increase or change was the CPU speed and upped to CPU Voltage to 1.65 but i am sure it will work with 1.6. I tired running at 2200MHZ w/ 244CPU Speed and 3x Hypertransport and it ran Sisoft Sandra 2004 fine but after about 15 min of doing different things on my computer i got a BSOD. Any ideas on things i can try to make it stable? Would upping the Voltage to the ram help any if it is the ram that cause the BSOD
Thanks in advance,
Chris
