Hopefully, if I let it all cool down things will be better tommorow....

Just wanted you all to know this may be a risky move. I actually had pretty decent clocks before I edited that file @ 1.45v's on the CPU....

The gear shown in my sig is accurate....


I I have never raised it that high and in fact this mobo overvolts by .05 to .07 so you actually put 1.6+v into that cpu.

I just wanted to add also I overclock to 3.25ghz @ 1.45v in the bios then manually set the aod.....using the edited file the most I put into this cpu is 1.55v I never just raised it all the way

sorry to hear your cpu may be dead
