newest stable clock... lowered the NB and FSBV a bit. i'll be trying lower voltages and maybe tighter RAM timings... then, i want 4.0 stable. can't seem to figure that one out though. maybe warboy will get it first so i can steal his settings again!

Great OC, some more people like this one, OCCT stable, and I'll jump for a Maximus board too. Just a question, your OCCT custom settings are in RAM mode? Also, what's your cooling solution for CPU and NB?

Cheers dude! Much appreciated. Quick question though, with 4GB to test, should I move the ram slider all the way to 1024MB?

Yes, move it all right to 1024Mb. Seems not much, but it puts system on the knees so much more than blend in prime95

CPU & RAM with priority normal... never changed it. should i?

CPU is using the stuff listed in my sig. NB is just air cooled for the moment. i'll be water cooling it when i get my new vid cards and add them to the loop. most likely will reseat the NB block also with mx-2.

EDIT, just realized that the CPU tab wasn't up in that picture... i think everything is covered, if not just let me know and i'll get what ever you need.

Ahh, didn't look well in the signature, thought it only an image. No need for CPU tab, OCCT displays everything needed, and PC Probe the vcore. Nice WC, very close to mine except an Apogee GT and a PA120.3 instead of the Fusion and MCR-320. I'll also invest in a MCW30 for my new MB.

Give OCCT last beta a try (Link), and put the slider in RAM 1024Mb mode. Hope you keep stable it really stresses the NB-RAM at maximum. If it fails, your F@H also could fail, and suerely from time to time a game or other stuff...
Please let me know once done, you have just the best yet stable OC on this board

i tried for 18 minutes and it was stable... couldn't get OCCT to stop the test though lol. i had to use task manager. anyway, i'll try running it longer later on. i don't think i'll have a problem though as i'm using a 1:1 divider and the ram isn't overclocked much.

Great, good news, you are stable for 18mn which is already very good. If OCCT in RAM mode is stable for 1-2h, then it is probably stable for real.

For the priority issue, you have to set priority in "configuration panel" to lowest, it is a bug in the beta. Once on lowest, you could use your computer normally
