Temps are fine, the clock gets negatively affected and more unstable. Right now i have it @ 1.432v rock solid for 9.5 hours but as soon as i put 1.5v it is not stable anymore and blue screens like crazy. They just don't like high voltage. And im not going over 63 degrees under load on 1.5v so go figure, it makes you crazy until you figure it out. Im working on some theories for 3.8ghz right now and I managed to pull about 15 minutes prime stable but than it blue screens or sometimes the system restarts so its gonna be tough...


ps: Another thing i noticed is that on most shots for stability over the web the memories are with low timings and low frequency. Most of us who have trouble clocking past 3.7Ghz are trying to go 3.8ghz with memory at 1600nhz. Furthermore, look at the Am2+ and 940BE, they all clock like MOTheRF@@@@@ and they all use slow DDR2... I wanna see 3,8Ghz Prime95 8 hours stable shot with memory 1600 or above... That kind of shot is hard to find so im thinking higher memory speed puts too much strain on the controller for stability(YES, you can bench test for 1 hour with more than 1600 + CPU@3.8ghz but thats not Priming for 9 hours.) use and that's why we might be having hard time. After all, its just a theory im working on and i'll begin tests with memory @ 1333 + low timings to see how the stability goes. Also, there is some kind of wall after certain frequency for the memory so this adds more support for my argument (@ 1600 and 3.7ghz+) and shows the weakness of the memory controller. So i have a few things to test in the next few weeks but i really wanna keep 1600mhz.
