Lower chipsets need that kinda voltage to get it that high

. It's a nvidia chipset, probably equivalent to something like a SB700.

i would just recommend getting the voltages lower. i haven't needed to go over 1.52 to get my quads stable at 4.0 on either the sb700 or 750

maybe im just lucky

Idk what board you had, but it could've been that, or even a good CPU you got.

My thing is retardo, im trying to run at 3.609ghz, and it doesn't BSOD, or freeze or anything. It just restarts, instantly. like i pressesd reset. what the hey??

Power related.

Actually its more based around the level of power phases the mobos have and the quality of the VRM's. Nvidia chipsets overclock quite nicely. You also need to keep in mind EACH PROCESSOR IS DIFFERENT.

Wrong.

When this problem happens, it usually happens from too little voltage, or a bad memory timing. Some RAM gets picky at certain settings, so that's like what it is.

I actually clarified that in an earlier post. There is a multi quote button btw.

I will agree with Pez that it's probrably RAM timings or something BUT it could possibly be a PSU related problem.
If one of the rails (If it's a multi-rail PSU - Not familiar with the specs on yours) is experiencing a bad voltage drop under load, that could also trigger a reboot. If you tweak your voltage settings, RAM timings, ect, and if all else fails, check the output of your PSU with a digital meter to be sure it's not the root of your problem.

A dying PSU can also cause damage to your system if it happens to go bad in a really bad way. I know a guy that had one literally explode and took out his GPU, RAM and MB while catching his desk on fire. Luckily the CPU itself survived the incident.

Hi guys!
Excuse me in advance if my English isn't too good, but I'm an Italian Boy.
I've just a big problem with my 720 BE! I'm not able to overclock them with a good stability.

My system configuration is:
Asrock AM3 M3A790GHX/128M
AMD 720 BE
Artic Cooler Freezer Extreme Rev. 2
DDR3 1333Mhz PC10666 4GB CORSAIR CL9 DHX (2x2GB) (TW3X4G1333C9DHX)

I tried to overclock and now, I'm stable on AMD Overdrive test at 3500mhz@1.435 volt and NBridge 2200@1,250 , but when I try to test stability with OCCT my system restarts after 3/4 minutes (with a blui screen on Windows 7 64bit).
The temps are 19/20 °C in idle and 29/30 on full load.

So, how should sets values to obtain more stability and if possible with a low CPU voltage??

Thanks very much!!
