Overclocking I7 950

If you cannot get it stable try lowering your DRAM freq. Bring it down to 1066 (stock) so you will be around 1500O.C. that helps stability sometimes.
 
Hmm awesome I moved my tower out of the corner under the desk and the temps dropped 10*c lol now its stable around mid 70*c haha. Prime for about 2 hours now.

I lol'ed at this haha :D 10*c is a massive difference what is your cpu fan running at is it 100% or what?

Yea I have both the push/pull on the H50 running at 100% since I cant hear them over the 220mm window fan anyways :)

Seems like in the corner the air was just recirculating so it was running hotter than it should. If I pull it away from the corner the temps drop a good amount.
