I am extremely stable to 4GHz but I am not getting my work done for any more. My CPU temperature is 56C. I want to replace my Zalman fan and put a cooler on it (Titan Fenrir xmas) rpm is slower so I think another 120mm Fan might be needed. Goal is 4GHz stable overclock and I need to get 470FSB speed and currently I am having a 440FSB. any help to this would be really appreciated. Thank you in advance for your valuable suggestions.

I need to see your settings to answer this question. But if you are using 2.20B multiplier then you would need to use 2.00B and trd also need to be change. MCH voltage may also need to increase. But as I mention we need to see your full settings but you will not need to do much changes aside then few things as you are testing for stability.

TRD 9 at 450 was fairly easy this will take a bit opf tweaking to get it at 2000 FSB.Using with a 8.5 multiplier for 4GHz and getting 1800 FSB. YOu should get away with much lower mchv probably 1.25 or less would be fine. You can try something mch below 1.5, 480-490 CPU ref with 8.5 multiplier, CPU at around 1.4 or 1.43v and memory at 2.5v or below then this, multiplier should give a realistic performance.
