237x11 wasn't stable at 1.65v and errors came up in Prime. Now, it's at 1.71v - 1.74v and is stable. Stock HSF, Prime temps are 55C-56C.

Just wondering if this is safe for 24/7 use with the stock fan or if I'll be burning out my CPU at that temp for extended periods. I've benched at 240x11 and 1.7v before, but it obviously isn't 100% stable. I just don't want to burn this out at all because I paid $1200 CAD for it ;)

Planning on going with water or Vapochill when I get the cash. Thanks in advance for responses :D
 
Bump.

233x11 9 hours stable @ 1.68v. Trying 234x11 now. What causes it to give errors? I can bench at 240x11, but Prime will give errors, would it just need more voltage? (If I was on water).

Is it safe to be running this at 1.68v or 1.7v for extended periods?
 
Have you isolated memory from being the problem?

I know ballistix should be good far beyond those speeds, but have you tried overclocking on a lower memory divider? (not a lower multiplier)

How much voltage do you have going to your memory?
 
1.85v on the mem. I'll memtest it tonight to isolate the problem at 240. Anything above 233x11 gives me errors in Prime. I lowered voltage to 1.62v or so for now on the CPU. Maybe it's my processors limit as far as stability goes (240x11 is fine for benching).
