Hey guys,

I just updated the bios on my 965p-ds3 and swaped my e4300 out for a e7200.

Well the good news is that it kicks the crap out of my e4300 that could only get 3.3. because of the fsb wall. I went from a fsb wall of 367. Not sure how high it will go now. I know for sure 450 works.

Anyway, I have the chip set at 4ghz 421x9.5. +1 volt to the fsb and +2 to the ram and heres the messed up part. Put 1.375 on the cpu... got into windows. Started orthos. no dice... rebooted and set to 1.3875... rebooted. The board turned back on then shut off.
To make a long story short. Any time i raise the volts passed 1.375 it goes into a reboot loop where you have turn off the powersupply switch and clear the cmos.

Well I went back into windows at 4ghz and used easy tune to up the volts . I set it to 1.41
(It shows 1.360 cpu-z) and its rock stable.

Anyone have any ideas about whats causing this or how to fix it?
Using easytune sucks balls lol.
btw i tuned off speed step and eist and all the other goodies.
I also unplugged all all my fans, 3 hard drives and 2 optical drives. So i dont think its the power supply. I went extreme on it and run orthos and ati tool and had sandra benchmark my raid array lol. Guess I should have burned a cd too.
