If I move the FSB to 141 it gives me a BSOD! Not sure why...
The temperature at 141 is the same as the temp at 133 with my old fan installed....

Am I doing something wrong here?
 
what kind of ram are you using?

either your ram or your cpu is hitting its limit (with its current voltage)

increasing the voltage will help you gain a higher overclock... but increasing it to much can damage your system


a pretty safe vcore (related to cpu) is a setting of 1.85v (your currently probably set at the default of 1.75v)
and a pretty safe setting for your memory is around 2.7v (your probably at default again of 2.5v)

those settings can be changed in bios


your temp of 141 (or 60c) is pretty high
if you want to overclock you should get a better hsf and/or get better case cooling (like a rear exhaust fan)
 
He said the temp@141FSB is the same as the temp@133FSB with a lower RPM fan, not that the temp was 141f 😉 Sandra shows The temp is 49.5c, BTW i agree he should bump the voltage to the recommended settings and that if it stills folds that either/or have reached it's limit.
 
BSOD usually mean that the memory has reach it's limit. Set your RAM timings back a little and see what happen.
