    no my bios dont have anything for the vdrop. not htat i know of. i will try bumping it up one setting at a time now.. orthos failed again at about the same time. 17mins 45sec.
    im gonna bump it up to 1.4120v and try and get it closer to 1.3625v. i have C1E disabled. that makes since to have it enabled. like you said theres no need to have it running that high just to surf the net and send emails.

    ive just been reading the article from here about the better coolers. im thinking of getting the OCZ Vendetta 2. that looks like a very sweet cooler.

    as for your DFI mobo... all them different settings in bios has kept me from trying one... seems like alot to go through in them bios.... i need to learn a bit more before i tackle something like that...lol
    ok going to change vcore again.

    InCore
    do you see anythign different when you hit ctrl & f1? i dont see anything different that allows me to do anything?

    i found this thread here(named wrong) it deals with some OC'ing stuff with the E8600
