Hey there!
I finally decided to OC my e8400, i'm still taking baby steps in OCing, but i think i'm getting the hang of it.
Right now I have it @ 1,36v in BIOS, 1.34v in CPU-Z.
Northbridge is @ 1.34v in BIOS
My temps are, according to HWmonitor: 38-40C @ idle; ~65C @ load on a Zalman CNPS7500.
I thinking of going a bit further, but I have to upgrade my RAM to DDR2 1066mhz, as my 800mhz Kingston craps out if I try to go for 4ghz+.
But for now, do you think I'm good? Temps and voltages, are they within safe limits? This a 24/7 OC, so if there's smoething i'm doing wrong, please tell me.
