hey i have a amd dual core 555 and iv oc it to 3.9 ghz. The fsb is still low because i have cheap ram.
iv hit a bit of a wall with it and was wondering do i need to up the volts because there still at stock ??
and if i should by how much ?
 
If it passes OrthosPrime duo with stock voltages; then no. However, I doubt it will pass it with stock voltages. If you are going to up the volts then do it it in very small increments as overvoltage can damage your CPU, FSB and RAM to a point where they no longer work. Make sure it stays cool as well, but if its already at 3.9 then I presume you have adequate cooling.

If the RAM is a bottle neck then overclock it too.
