I was having some pretty serious heat and stability issues with my settings for a OC @ 4.2 GHz. Thanks for posting your templet iride4u. It really helped give me an idea where I was going off track.
* indicates my own settings that lead to the issues
{I got lucky here, don't use the numbers in this templet for your own OC. They are intended for troubleshooting only}
