quite high. dangerous or not, you have to monitor your temperature.

tips? no tips la. i just put the processor in, set 1:1 FSB:RAM ratio and FSB change to 400 and that's it.

i don't touch vcore
i don't touch vdimm
i don't touch ram timing

yup. just ratio and FSB only.

yes, stock heatsink could go beyond 70c.

another thing you must note that 65c was taken when ambient was 25c.

your ambient + casing alone could influence the temperature variance gap.

diff board revision perhaps? how about BIOS version?

don't have to fiddle with RAM timing.

what do you mean CPU test? CPU test during 3dmark06 or something?

changed mobo to ASUS P5K-E.

not as easy to OC as on Biostar TP35D2-A7. on the A7, just change BUS speed and that's it.

this one ah. aihh. doesn't seem to be stable if i do just that. so have to adjust Vcore / Vdimm. not sure if that's the cause but it certainly helps. aihhh.....

Biostar is good!

I just change it because the P5K-E is rich in of features (costs nearly 2x the biostar), comes with crossfire for me to test out more options and of course - i didn't pay a cent for it!

those with stock cooling and over 3Ghz, kindly take care.

I tried before. Stock cooler, 25c ambient temp still ok. once I off my air-con and leave the system in the room with warmer temps. sorry la, no hope for doing Folding@Home on both cores.

load that time it goes beyond 70c easily.
