        Re: Overclocking E8500 on EP45-DS3

        I meant how can I measure core voltage during IBT?

          CPU-Z shows vcore in CPU tab, other software loke HWMonitor (CPUID) can be used.

            Cpu-z, EasyTune6, HWMonitor and other programs will display your cpu voltage.
            The voltage reading will change depending on the load on your system.

            With good cpu heatsink, case cooling and reasonable room temperatures, IBT or LinX maximum temperatures are usually in the low to mid 60 (C) degree range.

            Look at your earlier screen-shot and you will see "Core Voltage" in the CPU tab of cpu-z.

              Memory bendwidth good, latency is a bit high but expected with tRD 8.

                        All looks good to me. Just a Prime85 blend for 10-12 hours and you can call it stable.
                        I wouldn't go any higher with current CPU cooler.

                          A google search using:
                          hd 5670 crossfire OR overclock
                          turned up some interesting results.
                          Keep in mind that some of the links are using 1GB not 512MB cards.

                            Prime95 stopped running after 2h 38min. due to an error, should i raise vcore a bit more?
