Does this overclock look OK?

Sorry for posting again, but it's pretty urgent to me.

I just overclocked the E5200 to 3.65GHZ, it seems stable enough, makes a bit more noise, just wondering if this screeny looks ok?

There is nothing urgently wrong with the FSB or anything?

I've replied to your other thread - but all looks ok - just need stress results and temps (all explained in other thread.)

Additional: download realtemp or core temp for monitoring your temps.

It does seem to be slightly noisier when under load, but I guess that's the price you pay for more performance .

Will do that testing now...

Yes, unfortunately it can be one of the more annoying down sides to overclocking (there are alternative, quieter, coolers) - but if you're predominantly gaming you'll hopefully not notice the increased fan noise when under load.

Reply in the other thread with your results as it will be easier for me to recap your other posts if you run into problems.

Good luck.
