E8400 3ghz -> 4ghz
I've been trying for 2 hours to stabilise my E8400 on my P5N-E SLI motherboard - it just won't do it. Every single voltage option fails (restarts pc with colourfull crap) prime95 within a couple of seconds.
Temperatures are low 50's, brand new 700W powerpack, I just don't know what else to do. Interestingly though, I am running it flawlessly at 3.8ghz & Prime95 has been going for about 25 minutes with 0 problems.
Has anyone got any idea how I might be able to stabilise it at 4ghz? I've tried vcores up to 1.42 but I don't particularly fancy going any higher than that. Is there anything else I should try tampering with?
Thanks!
