Hi,
I recently overclocked my E8400 from 3.0Ghz to 3Ghz by upping the FSB from 333MHz to 400Mhz. I did some temperature testing with Prime95 and found it would reach ~65C when under 100% load. I decided that this was a bit too hot for the amount of extra performance I would get, so reverted my FSB and CPU voltage to "auto".
Ever since I have done this I have experienced light freeze/stutter in games. Periodically the game will freeze for ~1s and the sound will buzz (replaying w/e was in the buffer).
What could I have borked? What can I do to try to remedy this situation?
Thank you for your help .
