BababooeyHTJ, I am having mixed results with your settings. At first, PC posted ok and loaded Vista. Shortly after, BSOD complaining about win32k.sys. Leaving the CPU GTL & FSB TERM alone (0.866 & 1.313), I tried varied setting on the CPU, NB & SB. Having the CPU at +.025000, NB at 1.375 & SB at 1.6 I didn't get any more BSODs in Windows, and prime ran 1 hour without error. Was looking good until I ran a SoftSandra benchmark on the Memory & Cache. 17% in got BSOD again. Rebooted using same settings and ran 3DMark06, BSOD at Firefly test #2. I've pretty much tried all variations on the CPU & NB without long term success. Keep getting BSODs on 3DMark06. I have tried upping the CPU and NB a fair amount, and that seems to make the system less stable. Odd, that my VID is very low at 1.0375. If I don't try to run Sandra tests or 3D games, windows seems stable enough and I was able to produce the following benchies:
What was not noted above is that during heavy load, my CPU cores never exceed 58C so I can't imagine temps on the CPU is an issue. Despite my greatest efforts I can't seem to get stable for 3D applications or heavy CPU Cache tests. Going above your 3.85Ghz using any settings seems to fail instantly and will not post. Most BSODs are related to win32k.sys & others are just blank or not complaining about anything particular.
