Re: Saga #2 - Q9450 @ 3.2Ghz woes
If the current settings with LLC enabled BSOD or RSOD at some point, then I'll disable it, increase the Vcore, and lower FSB OV. Although, at times before, doing both of those things hasn't helped for long, as the system eventually BSODs whilst idle mostly, or rarely whilst playing a 3D game.
As for GMCH OV, I think it is at either +0.200v or +0.300v. I don't know if the latter is really dangerous. My NB cooler is the motherboard's one - a big copper block thingy.
Currently, I have the system right where I want it. It's been on for almost 2 days straight with no problems with the current settings. Not saying they are the be-all-end-all to my woes of days past - not yet anyway.
Also, they have survived o/n tests from Orthos, Prime95 and a quick one from IntelBurnTest today (although that made the cores breach 70oC for a short time, I stopped the test when I saw those). Then again, tests were never really the problem (system always passed them, no errors anywhere).
EDIT: Got a BSOD whilst watching a Mugen demo (from the app, not youtube). Restared with the Vcore/LLC/Skew suggestions you gave me, lsdmeasap. I brought the NB down to +0.250v as well, and FSB down to +0.10v.
