Hey guys,

Rig is in my sig below. I am using these fans: Scythe S-FLEX SFF21D. They're low RPM 800 and seem to be doing OK in push/pull on my H70. I really wanted my computer to just be silent and I've had loud fans forever and got tired of it.

I currently have the BIOS set to use all of the power saving features, speedstep C1E etc. I am using the auto turbo feature which is pushing me to 3.2ghz @ full load. Voltage is currently set to auto. I also have the fans set to a silent profile and they're all controlled by the mobo.

I've definitely got some room to work with here. Should I disable the turbo stuff and just raise my multi/voltage? Should I just raise up the turbo numbers a bit and my voltage? Little lost as to what direction to take with overclocking it.
 
So far so good...I feel my vcore is too high and I don't feel comfortable with it. I disabled the turbo stuff and just set my multiplier to 30.

Suggestions?
