My system did 6 hours Orthos fine at 3GHz (429x7) and when I was just about to end it, it crashed. Very frustrating it was. Then I tried multi 6 and it still failed. Figured it was RAM. See, my RAM was already doing 858MHz (all the way up from 667MHz, but with looser timings than SPD). Then I lowered it to 401x7 (at 400x7, PCI-E x16 would fall down to x1 speed - it's normal with this board) and Orthos passed 10hours+. Now the overclock is about 2.5 months old and it has been very stable.dpg said:Well, I ran it for 10mins(no probs-55C @ load). Then I downclocked it to 2.6GHz. Planning to do the 12Hr run & push it a little further soon as I get a new cooler.
And best of all, I'm running with reduced Vcore because 2.8GHz with this CPU is no problem. Only the RAM is maxed out. Wish I had DDR2-800 to start with (or at least an E6400 with higher multi)
I guess I don't need a better cooler than stock. Just better RAM.
(or a CPU with higher multi

The reason i didnt get an e6320.
BTW I cant figure out which one to get between Asus Silent Knight & that Gigabyte WC Kit. Im thinking of getting the Asus cooler bcoz water cooling is risky. (I might get the wc kit anyway
)

Why do you want a new cooler anyway. Try to max out the stock cooler first. As long as you are not overvolting, you are fine.dpg said:The reason i didnt get an e6320.

P.S.

I was @ 1.35v when i tried 330MHz bus & windows failed to run. Im not sure if its caused by the low vcore or the 1066MHz strap. Anway i dont want to overvolt it or OC it anymore with this hsf.(Like to keep things under 60C
) Anyway what was ur vcore when u ran it @3GHz & what were the temps? (load & Idle)
I'm actually running mine undervolteddpg said:I was @ 1.35v when i tried 330MHz bus & windows failed to run. Im not sure if its caused by the low vcore or the 1066MHz strap. Anway i dont want to overvolt it or OC it anymore with this hsf.(Like to keep things under 60C
(I set to 1.3V in BIOS, and it drops to around 1.27V and Asus says it is normal. I can't do anything after that, eh? )* But I should lowering it more

I think those p5k mobos hv vdrop protection.
(mine also lacks it )
Mine is P5B man. (good old 965 chipset)dpg said:I think those p5k mobos hv vdrop protection.
It is not some kind of protection. According to Asus, at full load,to maintain constant power
confused, the vcore has to be reduced, because the current increases. 
But it is pretty stable. I don't care man, because it's not my CPU that's holding me back. It's the RAM.
