    First hour no errors

    Hows my Voltage and Temps look?
    Last night I was running OCCT and had a "Error 1" within the first hour. Now I've bumped my CPU, NB and Terminal Voltages up just one or two spots. So far no problems.

    ASUS Maximus RAMPAGE 0308 BIOS
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 400 X AUTO (6X-9.5X)
    Crucial Ballistix 4GB (4 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (Running at 1066)


    ASUS Maximus Formula Special Edition / SE X38 RAMPAGE 0803 BIOS
    Q6700
    Lapped TRUE
    G.Skill 8500 2x2GB

    Samsung 1TB & 2 WD 200GB (trying to RAID)

    Why not run your memory 1:1 until you find out what your CPU is capable of. 450 x 9.0 with your memory at DDR2-900 CL4 is a good place to start with Ballistix. With a little more core voltage many E8500 C0 can run 450 x 9.5 reliably for a nice 24/7 overclock. Don't push your memory too hard until you've found a happy spot for your E8500.

    I can't seem to get my CPU much over 410 X 9.5 when doing 1:1. But I might need more Volts

    You can go higher on the CPU if you need to. Maybe bump down the NB a little bit, it doesn't usually need to be that high. What's your PLL at?
