Seems its not at all happy running small ffts at pretty much the same settings. All I have done is up the fsb to 402 so I'm running above 3.6Ghz (higher in the table ;))
Surely a few extra Hz shouldn't cause that much of a change in stability?

Keeps hard resetting only a few minutes in :(

Upped the voltage to 1.45 in bios. Which shows as 1.4 in cpuz under load....
Damn vdroop.

Where do I find VID core temp? Just found the programme.
Just trying to get together some results to post, also when the screenshots been taken what do you use to paste it to so that it can be put on the forum?
I'm assuming that image shack is used but agin I don't really know the settings to use so any help appreciated.
Thanks.:)

imageshack or photobucket can host the pics for you -1024x768 works well. MSPaint is as good as anything for pasting a basic screenshot.

To take the screenshot press prt_scr
Open MSpaint and press CTRL+V
Save image as jpeg
upload to photobucket
post here in forum

Just tried it and didn't even know about MSPaint, just what the doctor ordered as I'm a total nooooob with art work have photoshop and it's waaaaaay to much for me could do with putting it away somewhere safe and forgetting where it is, every time I try something simple it's 2 hours gone, I'd rather be overclocking or reading forums any day.

Hope to be able to add my efforts to your database in the morning if it passes that is.

Thanks for the help it's appreciated.:D

hey w3bbo yea i must have set it to blend on that test what a gimp, i set it too late last night and had to leave for work when it was still prime stable at 7:30 hours so hopefully when i get home it will be about 15 hours stable lol, temps have gone up to about 60 but as you said the small test is more cpu intensive but on the up side ive managed to lower the vcore slightly and all fine so far :p
