HI,<\/p>\n

I am running on Auto Overclock via Bios setting test6513316<\/a>.4 GHz for a few years already, quite happily, and need help to push it even further with manual settings. My proudly self-essembled rig :<\/p>\n

Asus P5G41C-M LX (Intel G41)
\nE8400 test6513316<\/a>.4 GHz with Arctic Cooler 7 Rev.2 air fan
\nPNY GTX 460 test29268206<\/a> MHz OC
\n4GB DDR3 – 1066 (7-7-7-20CR1) (2GB Kingston and 2GB G Skill)
\nOCZ 600W SXS
\nLG 42″ LCD via HDMI<\/p>\n

I am using my PC mostly for gaming – Skyrim, W40K Spacemarines, Crysis 2, Civ5, ect… which all increasingly require high-performance CPU – most reccomend Quad Core CPUs. So I decided to pump up the aging E8400 to test31404562<\/a> GHZ ( or as high as possisble as long as I do not have to upgrade to water cooling – max 75-80* C) as far as I know) before buying the new generation i5 in 8-12 month (once the prices are down).<\/p>\n

The problem is that after reading various E8400 overclocking tutorials, I cannot relate most terms (e.g. V Core) to my BIOS settings, and I cannot find overclocking instructions for my specific board with E8400 capabilitties (open multiplier, etc..).<\/p>\n

My BIOS manual overcloking options are in full below:<\/p>\n

CPU Frequence (200-800 range)
\nDRAM Frequence (“Auto” or varios multiple choice options which auto-change after the CPU Frequency value is changed)
\nPCI Express Frequency (“Auto” or 90 – 150 range)
\nMemory Voltage (“Auto” or 1.2000V – 2.4450V)
\nNB Voltage (“Auto” or 1.12500V – 1.51875V)
\nVTT Voltage (“”Auto or 1.20000V – 1.29375V)
\nSB 1.5V Voltage (1.5V or 1.6V)
\nAuto PSI (Enabled\/Disabled)<\/p>\n

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":3},"question-category":[44],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-10839","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-cpus"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/10839","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=10839"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=10839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
