Yet another comment on my new overclock thread
See "my system" for specs. I know the temps are a bit high. Before the overclock the cpu used to idle at 12 celcius but quickly I realised that I had to add 15 :)
The ram has had at least 100% coverage with memtest. I plan to tighten the timings, but it takes an irritating time to scan. I can't leave it on overnight (too short, so I want to get up again after it finished and fiddle with it) and its annoying waiting for it in the day when I could be doing more interesting things.
EDIT~Ignore the CPU temperature. It's 15 degrees out.

And here are the idle temps:

Re: Yet another comment on my new overclock thread
looks good to me, 39C is pretty good if speedfan's not reading correctly though i'd download tat and use that instead (intel thermal analysis tool).
I know what you mean about waiting while you test it, i'm the same :D
edit: i was looking at system temps :S 75C is pretty high, i'd try and keep it below at least 70C (i usually go for 60). Have you tried a lower vcore? or is that the least you need to be stable?
or maybe the speedfan temps are 15C too high, in which case great! but i'm not sure
Re: Yet another comment on my new overclock thread
I've set the offset on the core0 and core1 to +15, so those are correct. As i said its just the CPU measurement that's wrong, because I can't offset it.
I have tried decreasing the vcore (my motherbaord sets it automatically depending on overclock) but I got a bsod on startup.

Its pretty good with air, nice job, with my PC 5200 ram I cant dare to go over 3.2Ghz on my e6300, but nevertheless, good OC.
