Is this a good OC?

I am new to this and only got a DS3 on saturday. I am running a 6300 with a Gigabyte G-power Pro HSF

18s for 1M Pi!

Running 8M Pi and load temps are in mid 40's

Can anyone give me guidance on how far I can go and what my RAM timings mean?

Thanks in advance

What are your ram timings set at?
What RAM is it?
What motherboard?
Why aren't you using the 7x multi?
What voltages have you set?

etc.

Need more info

Here is photo during 8M pi run

RAM is just 2GB Kingston Value PC-5300

I have just up'd the FSB in the DS3 Bios and the timings are whatever it throws out. I have also added 0.3v to DDR

Looks good, might wanna change the timings to 6-6-6-18 or try 5-5-5-15. Pretty good for 5300 value ram though.
