After months of savings, an oc'ing setup and new how to :)

Hi guys,

I'm happy to announce that after months of savings I purchased an asus rampage formula board and a q9450 cpu. I already had 2*4 gb hyperx pc 6400 ddr2 from kingston so i'm using these also. I tried to oc succesfully with asus automatic bios tool to 3 ghz but i got a software warning that the nb voltage and the dram voltage was too high.

My question is what a decent oc (can survive at least a year till nehalem) for the 9450 can be and how much voltage the vcore, nb and dram can take without risks:
my settings as I can see the in the monitor are:
VCORE: 1.23v
Dram: 2.05v
Dram Ref: 1.02
NB: 1.47
+3.3: 3.28
+5: 4.94
+12: 11.82
SB: 1.07
SB2: 1.55
FSBT: 1.30

I've read something about the VTT (on the anandtech review of the extreme they blew up) and the 45nm so I was wondering if my figures are save because on video conversion they save me 1/5 of time?

I hate auto settings! Often times it is listed wrong when you compare it to programs like Probe 2 and Everest etc. Now for the Vcore you have your NB is a little high. I would set the CPU at 1.3v manually and your NB at 1.36 manually. That should clear up your problem and you can probably turn it up a little higher without any problems.
