Overclocked the CPU did a burninTEST

[fadz23q]

Okay it was previously on 3 ghz, i overclocked it upto 3.16ghz

and ran a BurninTEST, it did the 10 Min test and passed with No errors, does that mean its stable?

what exactly do i have to look for when i Overclocked in regards to Temperatures,volts etc, a list of what i should watch out for would be great, thanks.

Run an Orthos blend test at priority 9 for 12+ hours to check for actual stability. Keep an eye on your temps, you should be fine.

ya priority 10 messes you up

Temps depend on cpu really some cpus can survive higher temps than others, you dont really want to pass 65 degrees. you can see temps with speedfan or everest. And as Fragtek said run Orthos or Prime95 for a while and youll be alright there if they wont bring any errors. tbh myself i dont really think that 160Mhz whould really make that much of a difference on e6600, *try pushing it harder*
