I need some help OCing my new 5400.

Motherboard : EP35-DS3
RAM : Kingston DDR2 800Mhz RAM ( 2 sticks)

Here's what i set:
RAM speed: 800Mhz
Multiplier= 10
FSB=333
FSB voltage: +0.1v (from default, only 3 settings: +0.1v,+0.2v,+0.3v)
MCH voltage: +0.1v (from default, only 3 settings: +0.1v,+0.2v,+0.3v)

CPU speed=3.33Ghz

It wasn't stable by default voltage (1.28xx), so i up it to 1.36xx and managed to run the 3D Mark 06 CPU benchmark (previously with lesser voltage it crashed). I assume 1.36xxv is still safe as the specs says the voltage between 0.8v - 1.36v??


Is this voltage good for this speed and also the temperature? I was thinking to OC it to at least 3.66Ghz...what would be the voltage that is recomended for this speed and the temperature expected?

I am only using stock cooler btw, maybe get a 3rd party later.

TQ.

i need some help guys, here's my specs:

Gigabyte EP45-UD3P
E5400 2.7Ghz
2 x 2GB KVR RAM
GTX 460 1GB
CM RealPower 550W
CM V6-GT

FSB=333Mhz
RAM=800Mhz (No OC).

Initially i o/c-ed it to 4Ghz and it was running fine for a few months..., but recently, when it boots up, sometimes it'll lose the OC settings and
goes back to default.

I'm not sure how to set those settings in the voltage, so i just default it in the BIOS (which was working previously). The core voltage goes to 1.4v.

Whenever it lose the setting, and i return to the BIOS, a red warning message will pop up regarding some failed OC settings on previous run.

Could it be a mobo problem? The LAN port (2 ports!) just kong out recently...i think around the same time the problem appears...not really sure though....can OC too much knock out LAN ports???

Pls help!!
