Hi,

I have just overclocked my i7 860 to 4GHz, ran Prime95 and it crashed to blue screen. My temps ran up too 100C so assume that's the problem!

Here are my BIOS setting:

CPU Ratio 21X
BCLK Frequency 191
PCIE Frequency 100
DRAM Frequency Auto
QPI Frequency Auto
CPU Differential Amplitude Auto
CPU Clock Skew Auto
Fixed Voltage 1.40
IMC Voltage 1.25
DRAM Voltage Auto
CPU PLL 1.90
PCH Voltage Auto
AI Overclock T Auto

Idle temps (speedfan):

System 54C
CPU 54C
AUX 46C
MB 31C
COREs AROUND 48c

Is there any configuration that will solve this heat problem?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Did you touch the voltage when overclocking? If so that is probably why it is so hot. But other than that you cannot really overclock with a stock cooler.
