Ah. Sorry, I really should have worked that out.

Find out what the voltage is currently set to on Auto and start there. Speedfan and Everest will tell you the current vcore in Windows. Depending on your boards vdoop, that reading will be a bit below what it's currently set to in BIOS. Add maybe 0.025-0.4v to the Speedfan/Everest reading and start from there, paying close attention to your temps as you go.

Actually I should have said 0.025-0.04v and not 0.025-0.4v. My typo was a tad more dangerous than yours :rolleyes:

1.265v is pretty low. You should have a fair bit left to play with. And your memory won't hold you back. Just keep your memory divider at 1:1 until you find your highest stable overclock.
