Hi everyone!
Thanks for your time in reading this thread I could really Use some help with my Phenom 955. It is c-3 stepping.My current set up is
CPU clock is at 3.7ghz with 1.375 Volts
Cpu Northbridge at 2400mhz at 1.200 Volts
That set up is 100% stable. A p95 test for 10 hours proves it for me.
The PROBLEM:
When I overclock the CPU to 3.8 ghz I up the Voltage to 1.400 and I get a BSOD in about 2 minutes of running P95. Therefore I did the logical and upped the Voltage to 1.425 and ran P95. This is Stable (Without Crashing) Yet my Temps are WAY to high about 60-62. I do have a Hyper 212 Evo Air cooler.Should i do water cooling? Is the jump from 3.7-3.8 that big? But I've heard of people bringing this sucker to 4.0ghz with the same Cooler. Somethings i'm doing wrong? I'm a little new to the website so i'll link the photos from Imgur.com
Basic Specs.
Motherboard : GA-770T-USB3
GPU- EVGA geforce 760

Here's a few pics of CPU-Z at 3.7ghz with my mentioned Voltages above.

Thanks in advance!!
Edit: Sorry I didn't realize there was a Overclocking category. Hopefully it's okay if not I can make a new one in that category.
