This is for the new guys mostly that don't have any overclocking experience.First I hope you realize that at any time you overclock you risk frying your board,cpu, memory graphics cards and any other component you have.Second thing,just because someones settings work well on their board does not mean that they will work on yours,there are way too many varriables.Use voltages and settings for refference only.Third don,t be afraid to ask for overclocking help,everyone on this forum was a newbie at one time or another and most people are glad to help.Its much better to ask that dumb question than to let the smoke out of your new 1000 dollar cpu.
Thanks for making some great templates.

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}

Everyone's chips are different, OC differently. For instance, I achieved my max OC without raising VTT, a feat others can't seem to reproduce. As such, you cannot expect a high-OC template to work for you. However lower OC templates are often interchangeable - except when you have different memory, in the case of memory settings. But if that's what you want, then "Dummy OC" will suffice anyway. So using someone else's template is not recommended, but might give you an idea of what kind of settings you should aim for when you OC. It's not to be taken literally, as an exact setting template.

have fun stable!! stable!! stable!! 24/7.
one thing, your board us not the classified like mine, so you will need to change the CPU VTT Voltage to +200mv and not +100mv like i did cuse your board come with 1.1v and mine 1.2v.
hope this helps.

@ happaflap Nobody was mocking you. I personally just found funny that a random template just fixed your problem...

[code][/code] Hey Guys, please keep this thread going.  I am a noob at OC and I have been learning here.   Thanx
