Weird thing is, that I've raised the VTT and VCore. I don't get 124 or 101 BSOD's. I get some weird ones sometimes. One was 1D, 1E, 4E, and 50. and gimme a min and I'll post a HWMonitor SS. But I got rid of the 4E BSOD by reinstalling Windows (I think it was caused because of a crash and something got corrupted).
Edit: I might try a Boot n' Nuke on the HDD tonight, and reinstall Win7 tmrw. Btw, I have the optical drive disconnected, so it can't be causing the problems.

Adjusting the VDroop Control to Without VDroop will help and it should lower your temps a little.
You may also want to set the MCH Strap to 1600. It can be tricky to set sometimes. I usually set all my settings to default and set the MCH Strap to 1600 and then Save and Exit the bios. Restart and apply my overclock and Save and Exit again. If I just change the MCH Strap setting without going thru all of this the PC will usually act like a failed OC attempt.
