Lowering the CPU freq to 375 (3000MHz) and all other settings the same (including memory) I am currently running the blended Orthos test at 1 hour 20 mintes. What does that mean??? Not that I need 3.2 GHz, but now it has become personal between the computer and me The sad thing is that the computer is winning!

Ugh....THis is killing me....Again, This is the best set up I have had so far. I have tried all the suggestions, but no luck. To be honest, all the different settings are starting to blend together. I am just wondering what I really need to concentrate on? FSB? Memeory Voltage? V core???? ect. I installed the latest bios(706) and ran the blended test (default setting) and I t ran for about 5 hours (I shut her down).

RUn SmallFFT for 12hours and if it doesn't crash you know your CPU is good. Then run memtest to check memory.
Although that method is quite nice, memory behaves differently under DOS than under Windows, I can tell you. I can have my memory running error free under Memtest all night at high freqs with my Cpu 100% stable, and boot into Windows and fail to pass succesfully Orthos or Prime or SuperpI 32M....
Memtest is not enough for Ram memory testing...that's all I want to point out.
