Do you have heatsinks and what is your open elec settings. Are they safe and is there noticable difference?

I'm also powering the pi from its Usb hub and running from usb and not SD which also sped the whole thing up. No corruption ever since moving system to usb.You should try to OC the Ram. If I can get to 700 I'm sure anyone can get to 600. Need to disable_pvt=1

Its a monster, its basically an ssd drive.

It's in the low 50s on idle and can make it over 60 under load, but no lockups so far. What's the max temp rating for the Pi? As long as it's 70+ I should be fine.
