Hey this is my first OC and need help.
__________________I set the BIOS as per Sticky for Overclocking P5N-E. After saving and rebooting I got a constant beep. In my mobo manual there is no list of what beeps are what so I looked it up on the nety and it told me that it is the RAM. So I ran a MEMtest for about an hour with no errors. I have 2 sticks of Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800. I set the timings to 4-4-4-12-T2. Is that correct? What other different bios settings do I need to set different that for the P5N-E? I use the P5N-D with a E8400 and 2x 1GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800. I had to set the timings to 5-5-5-12 and Auto otherwise I got a continues beep at POST. The higest I got was FSB 1450, DDR 820, VCore 1.40, NB 1.68, SB 1.62, HT 1.68, DDR 2.11. My core temp was very high at these settings but ran for 30 minutes without errors and I stopped the test. The core temp was 70 deg. C!!!! I tried to lower the VCore to 1.38 but after 2 min. with Prime95 I got a blue screen. Is my CPU faulty or could it be that there was too much thermal compound, I believe Arctic Freezer comes with MX-1 already applied). The core temp at idle is 49 deg. C. What can I do?

I used JLewis187 settings from page 2 and I couldnt go to 3.2 I tried raising all the values at least by a few. I went from it telling me it wont post to getting to the windows screen before she crashed. Then I gave up hehehe.
__________________I am running BIOS 0302 would that make a difference? I am new to overclocking as you can tell I am sure. What does the HT voltage control?? Thanks

Try to lower the NB & SB to 1.56 and HT 1.52.. that is what i run at From what ive heard people using the E8400 use 1.4vcore to get 4ghz if I dont remember wrong! Try to leave your ram all at stock when you oc the cpu, then you take the ram and oc it The temp problem.. hmm... do you have any fans in your case?

I have a stocj Coolermaster Centurion which has a front fan (80mm) sucking air in and a back fan (120mm) blowing air out. I as thinking about installing another 120mm fan on the sidepanel to get more air into the case.
__________________As for the CPU, I need to order some MX-2 and lapp the CPU and HS. Hopefully that will do the trick. My GPU is running also quite hot at 70 deg. C. when playing COD4 after about an hour just running the desktop my GPU sits at 61 deg. C. There was quite a lot of thermal paste on the HS do you think that may be the problem? I could install the stock HS and see what the difference is. Today it is a bit cooler in my room and the CPU core temp is now 45 deg. C. I don't know what the room temp is.....I would guess around 20 deg. C. Does the thermal paste need to be run in as well and how much time is that? I just tried to set the voltages as recommended and something weired is going on. When I set the AI overclock to manual, it will post and go into windows but when I restart and go into bios the settings have changed back to auto. When I again select Manual and set the FSB and voltages as I have set before that were working, there is no increase in FSb in Core Temp (program) and shows me having 3000 mhz (333x9). What is going on now? Yesterday I tried the AI overclock of 20% but it would not post. I tried again now and 20% oc works. I am running it now with Prime95 and the core temp is at 63 deg. C.
