i messed with my comp a little yesterday trying to see what it would do on air. i got it to boot up at 3.8x and load into windows. i have been playing some games with it on 3.6 and it would crash every once in a while when my room would get hot.. my room is facing the sun most the day. i tested with occt2.0 at 3.6 and my cpu statrted getting up there. so i shut it down at 65 c. i took the stock fan off the heat sink and glued a case fan on top of a empty case fan housing to give it a little room and glued it to the stock heat sink. then plugged the fan into case 3 fan plug and ran it at 100%. i ignored the cpu fan function. it droped the temp at idle a few degrees and quite a few under load. the stock fan would only run up to about 1700rpm and this one is running at 2700 rpm. so here is somthing that changed everything for me. i don't know what was causing this but since this board was new, i would get a double boot when i turned the computer on or restarted it after leaving bios. it would spin the fan shut off then power up. now it starts and restarts like a normal computer should every time and the only other thing i did was lock the sb volt at 1.5 instead of it being on auto. it runs at the same numbers as auto did but now i have no more double start?
