5. You're daring to do that to the video card...
:wow:

What version BIOS are you on? I'm at F8f (final beta), and F8 has officially come out. Sounds like some people have had config problems so I won't go to F8 just yet...


BTW: After removing dust from my PC and moving it into a cooler area (21C ambient temp), I can o/c to 3.2GHz with virtually no overvolting; 40C idle and 57~58C full load (Prime95 x64 on all 4 cores, 15 mins running, with Flight Sim X too) - w/8GB DDR2 4-4-4-12. :9

I suppose I could try for 3.6GHz, but have read by many that it's not recommended with air cooling.

For the RAM, Corsair did say it has to run at 2.1v -- most Gigabyte board users would add .3 to volts rating. I had to add .4, otherwise the results were sufficiently off to cause stability problems.

I'll keep playing overnight, of course...

I dig your system though; especially the video card cooler... with my stats (55C idle, up to 67C in full use, I am tempted...)
