I can't overclock my E8500 over 3.37 ghz, 9.5x355 is the highest i can go without my pc not being able to boot, i've read that you can normally go up to 3.8ghz without altering vcore, what can be going wrong?
Is using it at 3.37ghz with RAM at 1156mhz even recommendable?
My PC specs:
Biostar G41D3c Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500
Nirvana Zerotherm nv120 Cooler
Kingston Value Ram 1333D3N9K2/8GB Dual Channel Kit (Timings set at 7-7-7-20 running at 1156mhz)
Zotac GT520 1GB Video Card
M-Audio Sound Card
500GB Hitachi Sata Hard Drive
Not sure how many watts my PSU runs, doesnt have any info on it
I'd appreciate any kind of help
