Hey guys, first time on here and I need a little help....I just built my first system, and I've been overclocking a bit. First off, heres my specs. I have a Asus P5Q pro mobo with a Q6600 G0. So far, i've overclocked the cpu up to 3.25Ghz, with my FSB being 360. My ram (F2-6400CL5D-4GBPQ) is currently at 865Mhz @1.8V (I locked the voltage in). The temps (using real temp 2.70) are 58C being the highest, (Crysis, Mercs 2, and Stalker Clear Sky-these are the games I play most, and after hours of playing, the highest they ever get the cpu to is 58C). It idles about 28-33ish. (my cpuv is 1.42850 i'm pretty sure...I will check when I reboot next) I'm also using a EVGA GTX 260.
So, using all that, I had my RAM speed at 903, and I got the blue screen of death, so I lowered it to 865, where its at now. So my question is this, I would like to get the most out of my system, but not put a lot of heat and wear and tear on it at the same time. What should I be doing differantly? It seems to be pretty stable right now, but I haven't stress tested it with prime95 yet. (just downloaded, will do later I'm thinking) I have a Scythe ninja mini as my CPU cooler as well. I would really like to get the most out of my system, so please give me some help.
