Increased the vcore to 1.5 and FSB in bios to give 3.3GHz and orthos ran for an hour. Stopped and clockgend up to 3.4GHz/1.5vcore. Orthos blend rebooted within 10 minutes. Rebooted and set vcore to 1.55 and FSB to 426 (3.4GHz) and right now orthos is running along fine (1 hour so far). Maybe there is something to "burning a chip in" as yesterday and this morning this chip would not even boot into windows at 3.3GHz and 1.6vcore set in bios. The coretemps are reading 57/57C at 1.55vcore so again this chip seems to run cool compared to others I have used on this board. And FWIW this $52 open box board from newegg ROCKS. Doesn't have a lot of features but sure as hell OCs chips very well.
