Get yourself a copy of IBT and watch your rig implode. Near on impossible for your rig to 100% stable with that kind of OC.

Oops. Sorry for the confusion. I have C1E enabled. That's why the voltage is so low at idle. Here's a picture of CPU-Z at 100% load.

Those temps are a bit high ! Dont you have a custom cooler ?

Just installed a Noctua NH-U12P SE2 a few hours ago. Those temps were taken right after it was installed. Been watching them since and while gaming they aren't getting over 55.

Been fooling around with some settings. Have only been able to get back up to 3.8 stable with a lower core voltage which reduced temperatures by 10 degrees.

Just started Prime95 up.

Finally hit 4GHz on air on my Q9550 with 8GB RAM after upping the PLL and VTT voltages.

Vcore is stable, LLC enabled and I'm on an EP45-UD3P mobo which is well known for reliable and accurate voltages.

True120 cooler btw with Akasa 120mm PWN fan controlled by Gigabyte ET6 software (auto mode).

My room is hot anyway and my GTX460 (Asus Top edition) does pump around some heat as well. Lian-Li case btw and all my fans are set for quiet operation instead of speed, they only ramp up during gaming.

I have successfully managed to stabilize my first overclock, that after doing some reading.

The question is: can I get more than 3GHz speed? I tried other combinations but they don't seem to get any stability at all. Some opinions would be highly appreciated! :)

This one is for MB ref speed, Socket 754/NF4 chipset, currently the #2 all time ref speed in the world for Socket 754 and was the previous world record.

Intel Pentium E2160 1.8 GHz @ 3.0 GHz

Video cards I don't really believe in overclocking since the performance gain has been so minimal for me, even with a pretty significant overclock, so that's stock. XFX GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB Alpha Dog Edition.

    • AFAIK you shouldn't be getting a consent popup at all from Canada, so I think it is to do with a VPN or private/secure DNS.
    • From what I see it's only for Insider - preview builds. Not for everybody. So...
    • Of course, all of that sounds great on paper... No it doesn't!
