Hey. I'm new to overclocking but friend whom I'm doing it with isn't new but we're still having issues.
We've been trying for days now and we can't get the overclock stable.
I had a MSI board and got the overclock to 4GHz in 10 mins but i wanted to go SLI and changed the board.
These are my specs:
i5 760 @ 2.8ghz
6GB DDR3 Ram
950W Corsair PSU
2x Nvidia GTX 470 1GB
Gigabyte P55A-UD4 Rev: 2.0
These are the settings i've tried. There's a link here so you can see the bios and the settings but in case you know it here are the settings.

I've also used these settings.

Any help at all would be awesome. I know that this can be done to 4.0GHz as i've read that people have done it, but i just can't get it right.
It ran fine for 2 hours on Prime95 on Small FTTs, failed on Blends, and on Intel Burn Test it gets to test 2 and states an unstable overclock.
Thanks a lot!
