Hey guys,
I think I have settled on my final OC and just wanted to get some other eyes to check on it. This is my first build and my first attempt at overclocking. My setup is as follows:
i7 920
ASUS P6T V2
ocz platinum 1600 6gb
cm V8 cpu cooler
This is the OC I settled on (I did the tweaking through the BIOS, not using Turbo V):
I have the memory running at 1440 @ 7-7-7-18 1T timings. This all passed prime95 for two hours capping around 75 degrees celsius. It idles in the 39-42 degree range. Do these voltages look ok? (They are stock as far as I know...I started with about 1.28 cpu volt and like a 1.27 QPI/DRAM volt and worked my way all the way down to stock voltages).
Will I really see a noticeable difference by pushing to 4.0ghz (aside from synthetic benchmarks)? Do my temps seem to be ok? Thanks for any input!
