Currently my highest stable OC is 4180MHz, my specs are
E8500 (440x9.5) using Cooler Master Hyper 212
Asus P5Q Pro
2x2gb Kingson 800Mhz value ram
I set the vcore at 1.3625v at the bios, 2.0v for the ram and 1.3v for the nb, those are the only voltages I change.
Now I'm trying to achieve better OC, I bought new rams, Corsair dominator 2x2gb 1066MHz
I'm typing this post with my cpu clocked at 4.275 with 1.4v set in bios, I don dare to go any higher than that, but the OC is unstable I ran intel burn test and the residual (norm) don't match, havent really tried anyting else.
Any way to help me achieve better oc? Is it safe to set a higher vcore? since intel lists the voltage range at 1.3625v max.
what is your ram divider used at the moment?, i would suggest using a higher tRFC for the rams as all 2gb sticks hates tight tRFCE8500 (440x9.5) using Cooler Master Hyper 212

@bolded part
if a processor is rated for max 1.3625v, would you zap it?
its like saying, a car's specified redline is at 9k rpm, therefore are you going to run at 9k rpm since its listed as 9k rpm
