Ive been reading about overclocking well before I built my first rig. gave it my first shot this morning. All i did was change the FSB to 400 and it gave a oc to 3.6, just what I figured. I ran Prime 95 for about 2 1/5 hours afterwards and didnt get any errors at all. Im running it over night tonight. should I up the vcore at all, or if its stable just leave it?

Just learning about it so Im taking it very easy, decided to leave the easytune alone and do it in BIOS.
