Hi All,

I have been trying to get my conroe to overclock just a tiny bit more! However it blue screens anywhere after 2.8 - which i am happy about, would just be nice to be able to hit the 3.0ghz mark.

The blue screen says something like - esq_driver_not_equal or something like that.

Im running a DS3 board with corsair memory. Everything in bios has been kept to stock, running 400 fsb with the memory thingy on 2.00.

Is there anyway of splitting it so the memory doesnt go up aswell?

What volts would i need to change to get to the memory?

Just want to add cant believe for a £130 chip you get almost the same performance once overclocked that the £600+ one :D :D :D

cheers all
