Hey all, I have what i would like to consider a stable overclock on my X6 1100T (3300mhz stock, specs in sig). I have the CPU overclocked to 3800mhz @ 1.40vcore & it passes 8 hours of Prime95 on priority 10 (the most intense priority). I leave it overnight and dont touch it and no programs are running. I used the Small FFts and Blended tested and it passes both for 8 hours. I DON'T have the CPU/NB overclocked, only the CPU.
However, 1 minute of LinX or OCCT & the computer reboots. At stock speeds it passes LinX or OCCT fine, but once i overclock it, even its a measly 3500mhz (200mhz increase), it reboots. I've tried pushing the vcore incrementally up to 1.525 and it still reboots. What gives?
I read if the mobo can't handle the sudden voltage and stress loads of LinX & OCCT it will reboot, because its like a jackhammer hitting the CPU on and off & on & off (i saw this on the cpu workload when LinX was testing it at stock speeds, all 6 cores would jump to 100%, drop, then jump again to 100%).
It runs everything fine, but i just have doubts that it might crash one day when i least expect it and when im doing something important! Any feedback? Thanks in advance.
