Judge my overclock

[robcy]

Finally put it all together. Here are some of the specifics

E2160 @ 3ghz (9x333)
OCZ Nvidia SLI 2x2gb DDR2 800 @ 667 5-5-5-18
HIS HD 4850
WD 320gb
Asus P5K-VM (G33)
Creative X-Fi Gamer Edition

What I have doubt about.
The VCore is set at 1.365 in BIOS but CPU-Z, Speedfan, and HWMonitor all indicate a VCore of 1.34 when Idle, and between 1.288 and 1.296 under load, Is that amount of VDroop normal?

I have a ZEROtherm CF900 which spins at 993rpm at idle of between 36c to 40c. It will automatically spin up to between 1700 and 1850rpm under load which ranges from 59c to 64c, and hits up to 67c for short periods of time running Prime95. If I modify the fan to simply run at max (2300rpm) all the time, would the probable increase in noise be worth the added cooling. The system is really quite now.

On a side note: When I added a Zalman VF900-Cu to my HD4850 it went from 80/87 idle/load to 40/46 idle/load .

My Vdroop is usually about .016 t o.032. I would run CPU fan at max when under a heavy load, but it will probably be fine.

looks good.

Theres a pencil mod to fix vdroop, however i dont recomend it.

about the temp problem, dont worry about it. Chance is i dont think it will be loaded all the time.

Usually under 70C loaded is still considered safe.

and yes video cards dump a lot of heat. maybe you need a better rear fan?
