Ok, I have managed to fine tune the vcore now and here are the results. So far im pleased
Multiplier = 8x
FSB = 375
Ram multiplier = 2x (1:1)
Ram speed = 750mhz (375x2)
CPU @ 3.00 ghz
vcore = 1.275v
Ram = Auto
Orthos infin cpu0 cpu1 running stable for 12hrs now and I will let...
OK guys, I cranked the fsb to 375 with the following results
Multiplier = 8x (max range is 6-8)
FSB = 375
Ram multiplier = 2x (1:1)
Ram speed = 750mhz (375x2)
CPU @ 3.00 ghz
vcore = 1.375v
Ram = auto
Orthos ran stable for 2.5hrs after which I turned it off.

Hi Guys,
I overclocked my system yesterday from stock settings to this:
Multiplier = 8x (max range is 6-8)
FSB = 333
Ram multiplier = 2x
Ram speed = 667 (333x2)
CPU @ 2.66 ghz
Orthos tested twice on affinity cpu0 and cpu1. Stress test results fine.
Load temp on everest for CPU...
Hey dude,
I have similar temps on my 6420 at stock speed. Mine hits a high of 60C
You definitely need to consider your room temperature as a factor. For example at night time, especially when I put my a/c on my temp goes down by 10c. So my max load is only around 50c. In the day time...
My new system is about a week old now and I still running on stock speed. Reading this thread has made me nervous about discovering a dud if I overclock.
I used prime 95 max heat torture test on stock settings with the following temps..
CPU 59C
CPU Core 1 54C approx
CPU Core 2 53C...
I just have been really impressed with Gigabyte's customer service. I once had an issue with a 939 board and even after warranty expiration of 2 years later they switched it with a new board of the box for free the same day.
Then again, I lost the 775 socket and holders for the 3d ultra...
I agree those temps are way high.
Try cleaning your HSP surface and cpu surface with 90% alc and try adding the as5.
Usually I just make a little X sign using AS5 and my idle temp on e6420 on stock speed is 32c and max temp at 42c. I am using gigabyte 3d cooler ultra gt which I guess helps.
