Umm, Unfortunately, I couldn't keep it. It's that unstable. Each time I tried to do something on there, and the moment I do something else like plug in a flash key, it dies. Blank screen. So now I put it back on the X-BOOST speed of 3700 MHz for now.

It's OK HoneycombAG, that's what this board is for, the highest OC you can get by any means, stable or not. MY 5211.75 would run for less than 2 minutes before a BSOD.

Well just now, one of my best 120mm case fans broke a fan blade, and now that's of no use, so now I could use a couple of good new ones. If I had those, then the heat in my case wouldn't cause these "blank screens" and then my overclock would run stable.

Getting a better CPU cooler would help a lot if you are using the stock AMD one as your specs say.

New cooler from Corsair for us OCers, I don`t see anything about software to control the fans, maybe that`s a good thing. I emailed Corsair about it.

Hydro Series H105 provides extreme CPU cooling performance. The 240mm top-mounted high-capacity radiator is paired with high-performance SP120L fans for powerful heat dissipation you need for highly overclocked CPUs. And, PWM fan speed fan control lets you select the precise level of cooling power you need

From the bios, sure. I like doing it on the fly

I'd missed the quote below it

Quote:

Dual SP120L fans with PWM control for customized cooling performance
The SP120L fans are custom-engineered by Corsair to deliver higher static pressure with less turbulence and noise. Since they’re compatible with PWM fan headers, you can select the exact amount of cooling power you need

You could always use a bay mounted fan controller but why would you need to keep changing the fan speed? Set it to a level that you're happy with and forget them

Agreed

I just like having total power over small spinning propeller blades, I`m gonna paint em chrome
