cyrixMII300, i would be very careful with all those voltages you have set to "AUTO", this board overvolts alot of them. So if I were you I would start sorting out the voltages your board/cpu really needs while keeping a close watch to them via BIOS monitoring, Everest, whatnot so you don't kill your hardware. For example, what are your current vDIMM volts?

And btw, look at your load temps, over 15°C between the core pairs, you will have to reseat your HSF.

Thanks for the heads up mate. Actually i was planning on nailing down the volts of the entire system sometime this weekend (provided my wife doesnt get on my case that is).

As for the temps of the CPU. this is something that has been bugging me too. Unfortunately I just got to Rome and dont have a clue of where to get some good thermal paste which I need to have before proceeding with my plans to lap the Thermalright. Have to get to that one also ASAP.

Thanks again.
