After deciding that I'll order an aftermarket cooler, I went ahead and lowered my overclock to 2.8ghz and also lowered the vcore. It took a few tries to get the computer started up since my vcore must have been too low.
I went ahead with a CPU Stability Test run and it was maxing out at 100% cpu load with 52*C as the highest temperature.
For the hell of it, I wanted to try P95 also. I started up four instances of the program, all of which automatically began searching for P95's server to resume the primality tests (I run them once in a while since I find it interesting.)
Anyway, as soon as I started the 4th instance of P95, I got a BSOD and the system restarted. Temps were NOT exceeding 52*C right before the BSOD, so I doubt this was because of temperature. Do you guys think my voltage was still too low? And this doesn't have anything to do with my power supply only being 450 watts, right? It shouldn't, especially since I've been @ 3.0Ghz without problems for a while now.
I've set everything back to AUTO in the bios for now.
Input appreciated. thanks,
Chris
