My Pc started occassionally having to double boot (shutting down a few seconds after power on), it stopped it for a while but started again recently.
Thinking I should take another look at cpu settings, which I hadn't done for six months, I somehow managed to put cpu voltage to 1.500 (way too high, it should around 1.35?)
Anyway got the BSOD twice, before making what I think are ok adjustments and I just wanted to check as I'm not that familiar with this side of things.

In asus pz68 board bios with a i5 25k;
By all cores; 45
Cpu voltage; 1.224
Dram; 1.671

The bottom two figures are what I wanted to check, there set in 'auto' mode, do these look correct?

I switched some other settings in the bios as was recommended by a highly liked yuotube video that was with the same board and chip.

Stress test with prime95 for and hour and a half and top temp. I got was 96deg. I was checking with core temp too, but most of the stats in these aren't very useful cos I don't understand!

Oh and it seems that the 'double boot' problem is fixed.
