Thank you all for your help. Will try to add more V - anyone who can tell me how to detect my current voltage settings on auto?
Can see the cpu volt in cpu-z, but what about nb, sb, vtt and memory ??
DaneGuy: I have the same tower as you, here is what I did --> took all cables and put them behind the backplate, some remaining cables were putt in the hdd/psu bay in the bottom of the tower.
I bought 3x 120 mm noctua fans (at 19 db with 1,300 rpm ~ 93 cfm) 1 intake, and two pushing air out...
Hi. Tried underclocking the RAM siqnificantly, and upping the cpu to 350x9 = hardware failure in prime95. Everything seems to run stable at 333x9 - and the ram has no problems in running 4-4-4-12 at 800 mhz.
Seems to me the problem lies in the cpu then? Or could it be mobo issues?
Thank you for your answers. So far I tried underclocking my ram, to 667 mhz with higher timings. Any suggestions in volt modding, or should I leave the things on auto for now?
