Windows is using your default multi (9), but you're using 8, it throws it off.

Then i guess i will never get stability with this OC?

redalert

who cares what some vista gadget says and its not the 1st I heard about a Vista gadget not reading the cpu speed right

No, it doesn't matter what Windows is seeing, you're at the same clock as CPU-Z says. It's just Windows default uses the stock multi and w/e FSB to read out. It's not changing anything, just reading it incorrectly

Ok thanks much for your input. I will keep trying at this though my VID is ridiculously high at 1.325v. It takes 1.43v VCore just to get to the desktop.

I have experience in overclocking CPUs but i never had so much problems with ram before, i really need your guys help.
My goal is to run 4.0Ghz or 4.25Ghz if temp isnt too high. Currently at 60c full load (but i found out today that i never pluged in my cpu fan power. lol)
I have it on 4.0Ghz OCCT and Prime small FFT both 8 hr stable.
But as soon as i run the Prime blend test, it gives me error within 5-30 seconds. I get BSOD when i play casual games like WarCraft3
Please help me out. It's my first time OC on a real gigabyte board. used ASUS before.

How do you know if it's the ram? Is memtest giving errors? The CPU vcore seems a little low.

imo raise vcore to 1.35 if you have that 8400 and go from there.

I FOLD FOR OCN..

isune

prime blend error means ram isnt it?
cuz when i use small FTT and OCCT both for 8hrs it didnt give error.
but as soon as i use prime blend, it gives error within 5-30 sec the most
i just tried to put the vcore to 1.365v and it still gives error within 10 sec > . <

what about the DRAM Termination 0.9v
Channel A,B Reference 0.9v
i read somewhere they should be 50% of my DRAM Voltage which is 2.1v?
so should i change it to 1.05v for the termination and reference

Yep you can try setting them to 1.0v and see how long they last.
