Hi guys, I have a QX9770 that is a handmedown that replaced an old E6400. It's the best proc I've got access to for a while, and I am very happy with it. I recently finally decided to OC because I upgraded to a GTX 670 and I want the new games to run.
So I am doing my first OC ever of a processor, and luckily it's unlocked.
First step I did was just hit 3.6gz by upping the multiplier from 8x to 9x.
I think i bumped up the vcore to all of like 1.35.
Now.. when i tried to bump it up to 10x multi (4.0ghz) I was bluescreening on startup.
My rig is in my signature.. I am wondering what feasable vcore I am going to need to reach to make this thing steady at 4.0 like everyone seems to say it is capable of without a problem?
I have a Corsair A70 cooler.. right now at 3.6 I've yet to see it go above say.. 45C.
