I overclocked my Q9300 to a solid 3.0ghz with water cooling. Temps are no higher than 53c. I was able to run Prime95 with muti threading for 16hrs and it was very solid. When I try to go to S3 suspend, it would go to a black screen but would not suspend. I would have to reset the system to get it restart back. When it restarts, the settings are back to the stock FSB. I'm running the F2 bios with Vista x64. Memory timings were set to 5-5-5-15 on Crucial Dominators 1066. I left the voltage on auto. Would increasing the voltage help with this? I've heard quite a few people with identical issues with this same board. Can someone provide some insight on why this is happening? Thanks.

Well for one i have not heard of Crucial Dominators. I have heard of Crucial Ballistix and Corsair Dominators. That being said: If you were to have the Ballistix i would take the 1:1 ratio off and let the cpu FSB go and leave the FSB of the Ram at factory settings. If you were to have the Corsair Dominators that would be a different story. I might go ahead and just up the voltage on them bad boys upwards to 2.1 V to keep em stable and they will take a pretty nice Overclock to grow on.

 Either decision you make just go ahead and do a memtest to make sure everything works well together in the long run. Just google memtest and burn the iso to a cd and let it run overnight.
