Thank you for the tip tony but in do not use Vista here.

That's the sort of testing which is very interesting and helpfully conclusive.
Thanks Tye,
My main goal is to find out if the nb voltage is really total independant from cpu speed and voltage.
Currently it looks like I require higher voltages with 70°C cpu temps than with 60°C. Also the nb starts to fuel the chip at 2.4GHz/1.4V, i get ~3°-4°C higher temps.

Nice, good to see the chip still works. With no chef looking over my shoulder, it's hard to cope with myself here, so may things waiting for reinvestigation.

This is starting to make zero sense. I passed 1.275V. At that point I decided to go fro 14 multi. But whatever I tried, even adding Volts, it was everything but stable. Played with HT multi, NB multi, nothing.

So I tried previous settings which ran 9h+ and it randomly restarts or BSOD's... The restart makes no sense at all since Ive the auto reset OFF for when a BSOD occures. Also have the shutdown thing in BIOS off at xxC.

I just noticed though I ran this time with unganged where as, IIRC, I previously ran with ganged. Maybe Im an uber n00b and never caught that, but does ganged vs unganged has any effect on stability? At DDR800 mode it is.

Im really considering, how annoying it's starting to get, to throw it all out and plug everything on my DQ6 and see how that goes because this makes no sense.
I'd drop the cpu and nb multi and inspect how far ref HT goes. Then id try to reach 2.8GHz with an 13 or 13,5 cpu multi and an 9x nb multi via small ref HT increasements.
