When you buy a CPU, in our case intel they're sure that " it will works with 100% load always with our default cooler" (other coolers aren't they problem). But for do OC intel fan don't works because it's too much resistant to heat( intel default thermal resistant= 0,26) . Other fans ready for overclock have a thermal resistance of 0,20 or less. After overclock you should run again PRIME 95 for check it as I explained.
After that is a "waste" of time do tests without OC because it will be stable with must all cooler of the market. You can know when is stable after OC and run FFT's test
.
Ah don't forget you should have x9,5 multiplayer. Multiplayer is the "number" of times that you multiply your FSB on bios. For example:
Low multiplayer will supose less power. Always you perform OC test and test, be patient ;)

Quote:
Having:
FSB=333
Multiplayer= x9,5
We have 3,16Ghz (333x9,5= 3.163,5 Mhz)
We're going to overclock :
Changing FSB = 400
Multiplayer= x9,5
We have 3,80Ghz (400x9,5= 3.800 Mhz)
Low multiplayer will supose less power. Always you perform OC test and test, be patient ;)
