Mother Board = Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
Processor = AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition
Ram = Corsair Vengeance 8 GB ( 2 x 4 GB ) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800)

Standard settings are...

CPU auto = 3300 MHZ
CPU FSB to 200
Memory Clock x6.66 = 3330mhz
Normal CPU Vcore =1.4750V


Overclocked settings (currently using)
CPU x18 = 3719.82 MHZ
CPU FSB to 240
Memory Clock x6.66 = 1599mhz (9-9-9-24)
Normal CPU Vcore =1.3750V (set to auto under system voltage control.)
DDR3 1.5V is currently at 1.484V


My question for overclocking which is better what I currently use or these settings below.
CPU x18 = 3800 MHZ
CPU FSB to 200
Memory Clock x8 = 1600mhz (9-9-9-24)
Normal CPU Vcore =1.3750V (set to auto under system voltage control.)
DDR3 1.5V is currently at 1.484V



Also what should be the hottest my CPU gets fully loaded running prime95?

I just reworded the whole post if anyone could answer my questions that would be a great help.

My goal is to have my CPU overclocked to 3800mhz, my ram to 1600mhz (or as close to it as possible). I just do not want it to overheart or any other issues

Mobo - Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 960T Black Edition
RAM - Corsair Dominator 1866 (2x2Gb) & Mushkin Blackline 1600 (2x2Gb)

My setting......
CPU - 4.07Ghz (4070Mhz)
CPU FSB - 220
CPU Mutiplyer - 18.5
Memory Clock - x 6.66 = 1760Mhz
CPU Voltage & Vcore - 1.4
Memory Voltage - 1.65

Runs fine and has lots of head room. A friend has an Asus ROG board and has hit 4.2 With the CPU.
I think you can reach this easly.
