4200+ Ee Oc

hi i recently built a gaming budget rig in the mind of overclocking it....


rig :

4200 +ee 2.2ghz am2 windsor 90 nm
Asus m2nlsli dx atx am2 nforce 570
ocZ titanium xtc pc2-6400 2x1gb dd2-800 4-4-4-15
Mushkin 580watts sli certified
vista home premium edition
8600 gt oced @ 567 mhz 256 mb 1.5 ghz gddr3


cooling:

zalman cnps9500 ( huge copper heatsink with green fan pretty much the best air solution )
Thermaltake sopranors 101 mid tower
2*120mm blue coolermaster fans on the side
1*120mm back thermaltake fan
1*120mm green fan on the psu
i oced it with the simple bios option and i selected 10% thats what the cpu-z id gave me

2 questions :
how far u think i can OC it cause im not sure what has been done .... i want something stable... 10 % oc is really stable im sure i can go way farther???

i heard its bad to go over a 1.ghz of HT ?? some1 can explain confirm ?? i need some advice....

feel free to push it further. You have good pretty good cooling it sounds like. There are MANY threads in the OC'ing forum that can help you, so I am not going to go into it here.

(nice desktop backround btw, who is that?)

this morning: 2530 mhz 230x 11 at 1150MHZ HT ....
coffee brEAK: tried to raise the fsb to 240 without touching the HT multiplier and it didnt boot... i got the BSOD right b4 the window loading bar page !!!
during lunch: i tryed 240 fsb with the ht multiplier at x3 and i got the bsod after the loading page of windows !!! couldnt really read what it said but it was something like " dump memory blablabla"

so basicilly im stock at 2.5ghz...
do you think my ram is holding me down ??? i didnt touch any settings on my ram or it could be my voltage ? i didnt touch the voltage on my cpu yet ??

bad_karma: thats my gf shes hot =)
