Hi! I am new on this forum, so first of all I want to congratulate you because I have read it many times before and I think it is a very good forum. I also want to apologize because of my poor level of english.
I have been overclocking mi CPU, an AMD Phenom II x6 1045T. My motherboard is a Gigabyte MA-790XT-UD4P, and I have setted the FSB to
290, so the CPU frequency is now 3.9GHz, with a Vcore of 1.425V, the NB frequency is setted to 2610MHz and the HyperTransport Bus is 2320MHz. The NB voltage is +0.1V the normal (1.2V) and the CPU NB Vid voltage is +0,75V from stock (1.2V). I have 8GB of G Skill Ripjaws X RAM 1600MHz CL9, that now are running at 1545MHz with stock voltage, and I have some questions. I haver read many times that te max safe temp for my CPU is 62C, but I am not sure of what temp should I read, I use OCCTP and there are two temps, the CPU temp and the different cores temps (there are six core temps, due to the six-core CPU, but they have always the same value). When I run Prime95 in blend mode the CPU temp rises to 65C more or less, while the core temp is around 45C. I think that I should to pay attention to the CPU, not the core temp, but I am not sure. Another question is for the RAM, maybe it is stupid, but my RAM modules are rated in 1.5V, and my motherboard puts them at 1.6V, and I cant reduce the voltage to 1.5V (my motherboard specs says that it has 4 x 1.5V DDR3 DIMM ). The last question is if you know how can I improve this overclock, if I reduce the CPU NB VID voltage it just not boot, and if I reduce the Vcore it is not stable in Prime95. ¿Any suggestion? Thanks!
PD: I am not sure if I have posted this in the correct subforum, if I havent, can any mod move this, please? Thank you!
