    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    The PCI-e setting in my M.I.T. screen is set to auto, should I switch that to 100?

    Yeah, I'm somehow overclocking it wrong, cause memtest runs fine on stock FSB and voltages

    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    Is there something else that could be causing these errors? I've got the vcore up to 1.4, and I'm only overclocking to 401mhz...seems like that should be plenty of voltage.

    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    I've actually got a Big Typhoon for a heatsink, so I don't think heat would be an issue. About how much should I raise the vcore to? I've got it up near 1.36v now and it's still unstable...getting errors in memtest. This is at 2.1v.(Just to make sure I'm doing it right, I've been changing the...

    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    Still getting errors on memtest, seems like it got worse since I upped the voltage to 2.3. I also upped the vcore to near 1.34 with memory at 2.3 and that didn't help much either. I'm going to try to increase the vcore at 2.2 and see if that does anything. :(

    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    Thanks for the help so far. I just upped the voltage to 2.1v, memtest seems to be working now. (it got past the point that was getting errors at 1.9v) However, I couldn't really figure out how to set the timings (5-5-5 or whatever) I saw a bunch of settings like CAS latency time, DRAM RAS# to...

    New to overclocking, some simple quesitons

    How exactly do I up the voltage? There's a setting in the BIOS under the Mobo Tweaking section, like +0.1v, +0.2v, +0.3v...etc. So I should just try one of those?

    What's wrong with my 6300?

    I have a e6300 on a DS3 motherboard with a Big Typhoon heatsink. I tried overclocking to 2.4 and 2.8 ghz, and both times my temperatures were around 50-55 degrees celsius. I managed to play a game for about an hour with no problems, but the next morning it would lock up after like 30...
