bought a new pc and clocked it abit see sig for spec

did try a bit higher at 3.77 (440x8.5) but was not stable but had voltages on auto. temps were around 50 though

everst says its has E0 stepping, heard it mentioned a bit but dont know what it means tbh

i used OCCT to test it for an hour

yea i mistyped lol

got it running at 4.02 now with 471x8.5
memory is running at 943

but when i run prime95 a few minutes in it will come up with an error on 2 cores something about unexpected 4.8?????? and it were looking for under 0.4 if i use the cpu test only then its fine i need some guidance of the memory clocking/settings

volts are 2.4 for dimms which is manufactors spec well its 2.1 - 2.4 for people like us as they warrenty them to 2.4 occ memory, n.b is a 1.5 which helped it last a bit longer in prime95. any help will be good, oh i have 4x1gb sticks maybe thats my problem and need to change memory.

as i have got ocz memory i decided to buy a new lot of memory one thats in the supported list of the mb. so hopefully get it running stable at 4.0.

tried all different volts/settings even underclocked it a wee bit still was not stable

this is what i got

1.26 at 3.4
1.30 at 4.0

could get them a bit lower if i tried though but it takes ages to get it just right
