Anyway mates, after we determine our oc settings stable after (doesnt matter Prime95,OCCT, Orthos) few hours of stressing, can we enable CIE,CIA2 and EIST ? Any chance of causing instability ?After enabling back do we have to stress it again just to make sure its safe ?
for C1E, shouldnt be a problem in most cases... mild OC hardly cause problem when C1E is turned on... as for EIST, its automatically disabled once u manually set the vcore and multiplier... EIST is controlled by the OS, u can alter the settings in Power Options... as for CIA2, i don't know what's that -_____-

That was what happening to me just now,after saving the settings and apply after restart, I couldnt go into windows with PL7, and it kept freezing after loading windows, at last I just reset everything in bios, start from scratch. Even PL8 only takes me to 3.8ghz.
Btw here's my latest ss -

Its 1.25v in BIOS, at last I have to increase the vcore from stock. Anyway does anyone know the stock vcore for E8400 ? My bios default is 1.235v. Think this is sweetspot of the proc under low voltage, after this will try out with 2.40B.
shouldnt bother too much about performance levels i guess... from what i see in benchmarks, they dont give overall performance boost... PL8 @ 450fsb 1500MHz easily pwns PL7 400fsb 1600MHz when i ran everest memory benchmark
btw stock vcore for each proc is generally not the same... but most are within your VID
