E4500 Overclocking Issue

I have C2D E4500 and I am having an issue overclocking it. I have gotten it up to 3.13 GHz stable by increasing to maximum safe voltages, but only for about week so I could run benchmarks and other tests.

Re: 1999 Gaming Computer Upgade-Part 2

settled for a happy medium, starting at 700 on ebay. I have one bid so far, but I don't know if it's a serious bid or not, I'll just have to wait and see.

Re: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280 Graphics Cards by EVGA and PNY
