Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

What are your max temps and are you 100% stable.
It your 100% stable and not to hot then by all means try lowering the voltage.
Any instablity / overheating means the overclock / voltage needs to be lowered.

My temps are 35-38C idle 45-48C load.
My system(with my 2x256 HyperX, not my defective 2x512) has been perfectly stable since October until 5 minutes ago, I got a BSOD after I exited the Far Cry demo(only blue screen, with repearting screetching sound).
Then again it was 100% stable running with 2-2-2-6 timings before. Some problems in KotOR forced me to bump voltage from 1.675 to 1.7 to get it stable.
Hmm I did set my voltage down to 1.7v(CPU-Z shows 1.776v). Maybe FarCry cries for more volts(1.8v for only a 2.3ghz OC?) I was watching the voltage monitor closely and for a second it dropped to 1.3v, maybe a bad PSU?
Wait a sec, I ran ASUS PC Probe and it shows voltages jumping up an extra .5v at times, time for a new PSU.

Ok, but now it seems there are voltage issues with my PC. the +5v jumps up to 5.5v causing my ASUS PC Probe to sound alarms. And sometimes the CPU voltage drops down to 1.3v which I belive could cause a crash if that happens at the right moment.
Does my system really need a 480 watt powersupply or is my Antec 350 watt PSU sufficient for what I have?
