Greetins,

Hello I've been a Asus Mobo user since 2 years ago, I was using Striker Extreme and so unfortunately it died weeks ago and I had to buy another one while it's RMA.

So I bought..Maximus Formula II, not very familiar with the interface yet..

Well anyway, I'd like to ask some advice regarding Overclocking as I have some issue..

My spec :-

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.40Ghz
Motherboard: Asus Maximus Formula II
HSF: CoolerMaster Eclipse (Crappy, I know, lol)
Memory: Corsair XMS2 6400 1GB x 2 @ 5-5-5-15
GPU: Gigabyte 285GTX
PSU: Enermax Infiniti 720W
Case: CoolerMaster RC830

Okay, to be frank I've never been able to overclock much at the days I use Striker Extreme because I don't have the time to do..
Only recently I tried to clock then it died..not from OC though..not sure why -.-

So my real overclocking learning starts with this Maximus II, which I have been facing some problem all along..
I've attached my rough spec below

Problem, is, well, now my rig is sorta stable at 3.4ghz, I can play games and stuffs without BSOD-ing and it's been a week.
However, whenever I tried to Prime it, it will get error within 10mins or worst auto-reboot.

I checked my temperature, not sure if its accurate or not though, 85 celcius degree, it can never go above this as Tj.Max stated 85, but the truth that I learn is E6600 B2 Tj.Max is only 70 celcius degree =.="
Now my question is, what could be the problem? My best bet is the heat issue though -.-"

Sorry for the long nag and thanks for reading =)
