Have you tried dropping the Multipliers down on the NB? When you are overclocking with the HT Link you are also overclocking the NB and the RAM too. Chances are if your board is getting too hot it is going to be the NB to blame. I had my DS4H at 267 on the HT Link, and by dropping the NB multiplier down a notch i was able to run 100% stable even through OCCT.
yup did all the way to 8, changed cpu multi to lower 12, I can hit 270, OS is stable like IE, apps etc. Haven't run OCCT at that setting but Games crash. @ 250 x 13 with NB multi @ 9 it is rock solid stable.
Ok tell me one thing, which one is actually NB voltage? Is it NB or CPU NB, there are 2 settings and don't know which really will benefit. Also there is SB voltage, is it same as HT Link voltage?
