Just a quick question about the following setup. Temperatures are idling at 40C CPU with stock cooling, I didnt want to mess around with voltage etc. manually so did a auto OC option.

This is the current setup.Here is the pic

I have 4gb of this ram

Is there anything immediate I should be aware of? Any further advice?

Thanks a lot :)

i think you should be able to hit 3ghz with 9x333mhz with the ram running @ 667 1:1 or using a different divider to run the memory @ 800mhz @ around 1.3-1.35v using the stock cooler. your reported voltage is 1.28v, so another 300mhz shouldnt require huge gobs of voltage to run stably. but if you are happy with its performance @ 2.7ghz, then i would just leave it there. if you havent already done so, make sure you run prime95 to test cpu stability and memtest to test ur memory too since you are runnig 4 sticks.

Great, thanks a lot. I am happy with current performance and would rather keep the system as stable as possible. Would running the CPU at 1:1 at 3ghz and 667mhz ram make the system more or less stable however?

Also, I will run memtest overnight (86+ I guess) however is the Everest stability test an alternative to prime95? (While Everest states the CPU and Mobo at 40C it says Core 1 and Core 2 are 50-55C)

Thanks again,
Joe

your welcome. i dont think the everest test is equivalent to the p95 test. @ 3ghz, and around 1.3-1.35 volts which is within the recommended voltages spec'd by intel the chip should be super stable, but run 2 instances of prime 95 for 24 hours without errors, and that should mean your cpu is super stable. make sure you choose the small fft's test. monitor your load temps however, try to keep them under 60-65c.
