pkilway Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I go by the highest core reading. Now that I've Orthos Torture Tested for 12+ hours and I'm stable, I think I'm just going to be happy with this overclock for another year then buy a new system (but I'll be buying a new video card once those 9800's come out). Thanks for the info and help guys. PS. And no, no cream cheese on my cpu. Made a nice thin layer of AS5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you determining its stable? did you run sp2004 for 8+hours? If not I think you'll find that you are not stable as you think.
