Hi guys...need some advice. Still new to OC.

Hit a snag finding my max CPU.

Current setting:
CPU/FSB = 10.0
LDT/FSB(LDT Multi) = 3.0
LDT/FSB(RAM Ratio) = 133Mhz (2/03)
CPU VID = Auto

At 250 X 10.0, my computer SuperSI pass the 32M test. Temps were all good.
But when i set to 255 X 10.0, windows freezes at startup. Tried with higher Ram ratio(166) and set VID to 1.425 still won't do anything.

Anyone can guide me in getting through this?
Thanx

Oh...ok. Thanx
So...do i slowly raise it and boot up each time or straight jump to any vcore between 1.5 - 1.6?
Think will try the slow and steady route just to be safe.


Yeah...hope don't kill it instantly.
From what i read, the recommended max would be 1.6 - 1.65 MAX. Anything above will fry it.

High end cooling...i'm planning on getting a Arctic Cooling Freezer64 PRO. But contemplating on using watercooling. Saw one in a bulk at the price of RM180 (Syscooling), this ok?
Which would be better in the long run?

Thanx y'all!
How silly of me to push my CPU without giving it enough juice.
what's the average temp for cpu under load at 2.6ghz? i'm getting like 33.

Any tips on overclocking rams?

full load temps at 33-35(aircon) fan running at 1300rpm, when running the SuperPI 32M. stock hsf.

if without the room air-cond turned on, temp would be at 40. which is why i'm getting a freezer64 pro.
