Whelp, my old MSI P6N NV 650i MB bit the dust awhile back, cracked NB chip from replacing the NB cooler that was apparently too heavy.
So I ended up going with a P35 MB by DFI, and wanted to get basically the same OC of 3.2ghz. Been few days in testing, but I believe I finally got my voltages tuned in:
Did 8 hour FPU test which did produce most heat (ambient temp approx 83-85F):
I noticed from the DFI app, my NB voltage was in the red, so I tuned it down to the above config, and ran 8 hour blend test (ambient temp approx 80F):
From the above tests, I did what I normally do on the PC without any problems. I even watch about 2 movies while prime was running with no errors. However, Windows Explorer did crash when I was trying to open a zip file in the final 10 min stretch, but Prime kept running.
I guess my next set of tests is to use the power options to use x6 multiplier for its actual default speed of 2.4ghz.

------------------------------Which Chip? Well, it depends on which set of thieving b@stardz you choose to support: The ones who use insider trading to enrich themselves while running their company into the ground, or the ones who illegally pay vendors to not support the first group.
