Well it's looking good so far. As I said before I'm no expert overclocker but your settings look fine to me. Please let us know if it is stable. ;)

Well after letting Prime95 run overnight I got 1 error, I useRealTemp to check the temps and they never went over 77.
Here is my results from Prime95:

[Wed Oct 13 07:25:49 2010]
FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4
Hardware failure detected, consult stress.txt file.
