Help improve OC?

Ok, I set

5-5-5-18-2T 2.1v (4gb GEIL PC6400)
FSB 1333 linked and synced, 1.35v (e6600)

Crashes in Crysis, then gives me C1 error on restart, until I lower FSB.

I had 1600 overclock before I upgraded to A1(680i) and 2gb extra. Now 1333 crashes, even though I got temps 15c lower than before.

Please help.

More Vcore juice I think. You got good cooling?

C1 is a memory error so you will need to either up the Vdimm a little and/or increase the NB voltage. Overlcokcing with 4gb of ram puts more strain on the memory controller and can in some cases hinder an overclock a little.

Raised Vdimm from 2.1 to 2.2v, headphones making constant interference/squealling noise.

Xfi- fat

edit: Reduced to 2.1v, still making noise.
