performance/stability overclock for e8400

[darthvaderkenneth]

wats a good overclock for a e8400. It needs to be stable but give decent performance. I'm using a antec 900 with fan settings all at 100% with the CPU temperature at around 25-35 celsius. Wat would a safe temperature be? I'm going to use the ASUS overclocking software that come with my P5K mobo

what cooler are you using?best to overclock in bios and any temp under 70C is fine but best is to get it under 65C.

The E8400 would be more voltage limited than heat, so don't go over 1.4V.

every chip varies so try the OC out yourself and see what your chip is capable of
