Just wait a few more days, something will come out
I changed my RAM frequency and it went from 7.5 to 7.8 :). I still need to overclock my CPU and GPU.
Orli155,
Nice job that's a nice improvement and wicked score.
The Cheese
I overclocked my processor a bit but i think the temperatures are a little much. around 45 idle at 3.52. but it went up a point. I'm aiming for a 7.8 score. EDIT: It's settling at around 83 on the first core after 30 minutes of prime 95 :) I guess that's an ok overclock. You think I can go further?

Orli155,
In the total scope of things you have a wicked system and I would error on the side of caution. Start real slow and methodical with any OC'g. I'm just letting my mobo auto OC and been happy with 10 % but at 15% it's not stable. I've ordered up a 1050 watt psu and this could help but really the whole 7.9's is just a game and it could be a very, very expensive and costly game should we start to smoke perfectly good components in a quest to win a game. But if money isn't an issue an your driven to get to that elusive 7.9 then my hat's off to ya and go for it.
I know, I just want to overclock a little bit. I don't want a 4ghz CPU, I'm fine with 3.5, and I only wanted a 7.8 since I'm so close. But I know I can't reach it because I don't think I can overclock my processor to a 7.8 but the GPU is only .1 point away and its stock. That's what I'm working on right now and that' it. So I'm stuck at 7.6 and I'm happy with it :) I really just wanna overclock my GPU.
