I set the voltage to 1.3750 in the bios which gives me 1.33v idle and 1.312v under full load (prime95). At 3.2ghz it ran through 4 hours of prime95 without an error then an 8 hour DOW2 gaming session without a problem! Thanks for the help. I'll stick at 3.2ghz for a bit... maybe in a couple of months I'll get bored again and try 3.4!
