Ok I followed the Overclocking Guide on these forums "Gigabyte P965-DS3 DQ6 S3 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide" And I had all the settings to defaults. Coretemp tells me at Idle I have 54c when I run Orthos it get's up to 67c in a matter of seconds.

Proc: Core 2 Duo E4300 SL9TB 1800 MHz 2048 KiB 800 MT/s 9x 1.225 - 1.325 V 65 W LGA 775 January 2007 HH80557PG0332M

Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard

VGfx Card: 8600gt

Case: ThermalTake Tsunami Dream

I'm not sure if 54c to 67c is normal as I've never overclocked before. Any suggestions. According to lots of reviews these both overclock well on stock cooling.
 
Are you sure the heatsink is secured properly? Make sure all four pins are pushed in hard and not moving at all.
 
What kind of cooling solution are you using?

What kind of speeds are you trying to get?

It's normal for the temps in Coretemp to change quickly like that.

You probably just need to reseat your HSF or whatever you're using.
 
theriverlethe : I'm positive it's secured all 4 clamps clicked and locked.

Cousin Patty : Stock Air

Trying to get from 1.8ghz to 3.0ghz like most are with this same proc and mobo.

What's HSF?


I ran Orthos for 5 minutes got up to 71c. This is all on defualts too. Except i volt modded by 0.1v and put cpu volt to 1.35. According to guide it would make it more stable.
