What are the voltages, mem timing and cpu cooler?

I swaped my Intel 630 with a 945 and that thing is a furnace - It runs really hot. I can't reach the overclock that I wanted because the temps are through the roof. The only way I would be able to break 4.2GHz would be with water or phase change. Netburst Intel dual core =

That was my initial thought. You left out what you are cooling with. Stock voltage?

Can u enable EIST on that cpu/mbo? (Enhanced speed step)

If so..then you can drop the multiplier..and ramp up the FSB.

What you need to do is tune in the board so you max out fsb speed, and then, you can go back to the stock multiplier and ramp it up again.


Also..Intel has a weird "Strap" dealio that is kind hard to understand.

it has to do with your memory divider...I'm sending u links over MSN.
