From a low cpu ratio is dangerous :D

I haven't clocked mine but idle temps r at 25c and highest i was able to get was 36c, at 1.3volts. Tho AMDs can be clocked more easily

It's pretty easy if you know what you are doing. But you would be surprised how many people are afraid to overclock, or are too lazy to read a tutorial, or just don't get it.

ur gpu is too hot need to be cooler when the gpu is idle ....

my gpu is going on 45° when i play any kind of game xD

No. My GPUs are about 65°C and 90°C when playing etc.

clean ur fan or get an other fan :p
my gpu is during idle mode between 28-30° ^^

It doesn't matter. The card is made to cope high temperatures and cleaning the fan wouldn't reduce the tempteratures greatly.

This is not just a typical disease, this is an M&S disease.

What programs did you use to test stability and load temp?
Further i see your HT link is on 2400MHz, you should lower your mp for that and make it around 2000MHz, since it will not give you more performance, but can cause stability issues.
And what is your CPU-NB/IMC clock, since that one is also pretty important on AMD, including ram timings and command rate.

Also overclocking with MP is pretty easy, i prefer some more challenge. And since i got 1055T ( non be ) i just clocked on ht freq. But that's harder to get stable and requires more testing. But it also gives some more performance, compared to mp overclocking.
