I have had my PC now for around about 3 months I built it myself and was not going to overclock it until now to make sure it was working correctly. I have tried small over-clocks on the CPU for exams 2.8Ghz > 3.2Ghz. I have the Noctua D14 and on Prime 95 It won't got above 37c at all 6 cores at 100%

What would you guys recommend as a speed I wan't to keep the voltages on auto so I don't mess things up! I mainly do Video editing and things seem to be slow rendering I mean it could be the HDD or the RAM but It's probably the low CPU Frequency. What is the maximum GHZ ever reached with the 1055t? and what speed should I be aiming for?

Specs.

AMD 1055t (2.8 X 6)
ASUS M4N75TD
4GB Generic RAM (Have 12GB on the way)
GTX 460 Sonic Platinum
750w Corsair PSU

I have 4GB of just Generic Ram although I'm getting this stuff Kingston HyperX - Memory - 12 GB : 3 x 4 GB - DIMM 240-pin - DDR3 - 1600 MHz

I'm using Sony Vegas :)
 
With DDR3 1333 your sweet spot will be 14x250MHz (with DDR3 1600: 14x240MHz).

Drop your memory divider from 667 to 533 (800 to 667 with DDR3 1600).

Set your NB volts at 1.1875v to 1.2v.

I would recommend not using *Auto* voltage --manual tweaking will help you prevent over-volting and help keep your temps down.

Not sure what Vegas you are using but don't worry about the 'thread' setting. Even though it may max at *4* it will run an X6 at 95-100% cpu utilization across all cores.
