Overclocked my San Diego 3700+ to 2.8ghz. I primed it for 12 hours with no problems, it's also been folding away as usual and Windows in general is fine.
But any games will make it crash or blue screen after a short while. If a game crashes to desktop then the rest of the system starts getting unstable, eg programs running in the background seemingly doing nothing will also start crashing.
Increasing vcore didn't help so I backed down to 2.7ghz and it seems OK in games so far.
Anyone else had this behaviour? I'm using a Lanparty SLI-DR with 2x 7800GTX. My ram is on the 166 divider. I've bumped up memory voltage to 2.9v and chipset to 1.6v. Memtest is also OK at 2.8ghz.
