Recieved the gear in my sig yesterday and seeing as everyone says the E6300 overclocks like crazy I thought I would have a go.

Stock volts, FSB 400 with the 7 multiplier running at 39-40 idle in TAT and 50-51 100% load in TAT. Stable in Orthos for 1 hour. Ram running 1:1 800mhz 5,5,5,18 (motherboard auto settings) and +0.3v dimm.

What are the best timings for that ram? I set them manually to 4,4,4,12 and +0.3v but i had an error in orthos after only 3 mins so i set them back to Auto and it ran Orthos fine.

I still have room to clock the chip as far as temps go but got BSOD at FSB 428...will upping vcore volts slightly help get around this?

Running at 2.8ghz and with the XT at stock, 3dmark05 was 12145.

I have the same ram as you hardc0re_tid, but when i tried 4,4,4,12 last night i had errors in Orthos...but i had increased the vcore to 1.3625. I will try it again at those settings with the vcore on auto/normal and see what happens!
 
Manually set ram to 4,4,4,12 with +0.3volts dimm and left the vcore on "Normal" setting - seems stable enough. Looks like plenty of room left for more too with the temps as they are.

Clicky!
