E6300 Overclock Help

[JNco]

Hi

I gust got my new Tmg i1 cpu cooler

I over clocked my e6300 (1860mhz) trough the bios bus speed now is on 322 x7 =2254 mhz

I run a s&m test every thing is passed but the core temp is high between 57-62 c

 

is it good and do I have anything to worry about?

and can I OC more?

 

thanks a lot

As long as you ensure the ram is not overclocked when you up the FSB you should aim for 3Ghz or more. Temps do sound quite high for a mild overclock, does you case have good airflow and is the HSF seated properly with a very thin layer of TIM?

the ram is overclocked up with fsb i cant find in the bios to change that .

second i am not really know about the air flow but the heat sink is seated properly with thin tim

You'll need to prevent the ram being overclocked, because it will fail alot sooner than the cpu

Ive got my e6300 @2.5ghz with load temps of 48-50c max.Although the side panel of my case had an 'accident' so i guess the air flow's better.When you fit the cooler,id recommend taking out the mobo and fitting it that way.In my experience,those push pins dont lock down far enough if you do it with the mobo still inside the case.
