Hi
I just upgraded to this lot last week
Asus P5B i965
Intel E4300 Core2Duo CPU - Stock cooler
Corsair TwinX 1GB DDR2 6400 (800mhz) CAS 5-5-5-15
500G WD SATA2 Hard drive
I was wondering a couple of things that I cant seem to find searching the forums.
1...Whats the easiest way to get a reasonable overclock (say 2.7ghz) without do anything complicated? I dont want a massive overclock, and so far I simply raised the fsb to 266 which has given me a 2.4ghz clock. I raised it to 300 which gave me 2.7 but when I put full load on pc my cpu temp raised to the high 60's
2...Whats a acceptable cpu temp for full load? At the moment Im looking at mid 60s full load and 43c idle for 2.7ghz. Ive read people on these forums getting 20-30's on idle with stock, how is this poss?
As I said Im only after a steady 2.7 maybe 3ghz if poss without raising voltages etc, just fsb
