First Overclock...

[LTH80]

Like the title says this is my first time overclocking anything. I haven't run my 24 hr stability tests yet but i just want to show my bios settings and have someone double check and make sure I didn't screw anything up or change something I shouldn't have or if i should have disabled something. Also let me know if I went too far with base clock, cpu voltage, or multiplier. I read the data sheet and I believe the max voltage for Vcore is 1.55, but what i have it set to in BIOS it already turned red so i took that as a suggestion to not go any higher. I also changed the IMC voltage ... b/c a guide told me to lol. The base clk became unstable if i put it above 200 even at higher voltages.

 

Sometimes ppl say don't go over 50C but other times i heard 80-90 C should be your temp limit *?*

Also, when I go into BIOS it seems the temp it reads in there is higher than what Coretemp shows. *?*

 

I'm just starting to learn this stuff so I'm open hear any thoughts / suggestions from more experienced overclockers out there. =)

 

Thanks
