I know I have room for more performance.. what would you change? Plenty stable at 3.6GHz using EasyTune 6, but I've heard that's not the best idea. Basically, all I've done is bump the E7400 to 9.0x @ 400FSB for 3.8GHz.
Build:
GA-EP45-UD3P
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400
Xigmatek S1283
4GB Patriot Viper DDR2
Antec 900
PC Power & Cooling S75CF 750W single-rail
BIOS:
* indicates the default setting
EIST and C1E are disabled
Where do I start if my goal on the E7400 is 3.8GHz?
Short BIOS version: Everything is default except Multipler/FSB (9.0x400=3600MHz) and memory timings (4-4-4-4, 800MHz).
