Have you tried manually setting rRD ?? depending on fsb you might need to use 10 . What bios are you using ?? F6H is better
Try 3.20B at stock fsb, start with tRD at 8 or 9 first and see how that goes , what voltages are you using ? for your ram & MCH ??

Thanks for posting specs

some advice?

Ps: sorry for my bad english...
a quad is difficult to overclock NOT like an E8400 or E8500...just think about it...dual L2 which has to talk to system memory...there is a very delicate balance to maintain.

I am using the last bios (f6h), but the system is even more unstable, seen that the processor does not hold more the frequencies of before with the same voltages... I have gone back to the old bios "stable" (f6a)

1.34 mch, 0.90 e 1.05 mch:ram

Ram @ 2.20v, 1.10v x channel


(I do not remember why I am in the office )

Best thing, when you get home, is probably is for you to copy the info from this postBios Template into a new post and enter your current settings. We'll be able to check all your settings then.
