This club has started at the perfect time for me, just got my C2D rig, am playing at the moment, up to 3.2Gig but have no idea about sensible voltages, anyone know any links to a C2D overclocking guide, I am using my AMD overclocking skillz at the moment so there are a few unanswered questions!

3.2Ghz isnt slow... Ur doing better than me :( To overclock to 3.2 I have to lower my RAM frequency to 400 or 553, then overclock...

Thanks very much, I will have a read through, the AMD guide I will leave to one side as I would consider myself a bit of an AMD Overclocking Guru but the others look excellent.

3.2Ghz isnt slow... Ur doing better than me :( To overclock to 3.2 I have to lower my RAM frequency to 400 or 553, then overclock...

Thanks, well with this mobo I can simply "unlink" the FSB/Memory and set the memory to ANY speed I want down to a single Mhz, that way memory plays no factor in the CPU overclock, just need to get a handle on it all, am a bit rusty on Intel, the last Intel I overclocked was a P3 350Mhz!!!

I also seem to need quite a lot of volts once I go beyond 3.2Gig, am not convinced thats right somehow, she always remains very cool, like 28C Idle, 39C full load at 3.2 but to get 3.2 I need 1.45V, any idea's/thoughts on that?

OK, am up to just over 3.3Gig now, temps are still good at 31C idle, 42C load but have 1.475V going thru her to get here, anyone know of a safe max for C2D?

Have not played around with memory yet hence the 4-4-4-12@2T at just under 900<hz........have it "Unlinked"

I'd say 1.5v max on air and .1 or.2 up on water..........then i'd get phase coolers:p

I hear what you are saying but why if I am running so cool? Have read that you should not go above 1.5V on air a few times, am wondering what anyone else is having to put thru the chip to get 3.3Gig.

Don't go over 1.5V air....it's not about the temperature. It's not recommended for a 65nm core to run over 1.5V 24/7, maybe for 90nm yes, but not for 65nm...you gonna kill your CPU.
Every CPU batch overclocks differently, you just have to find where's the optimal frequency/voltage for your particular CPU. My E6300 L632 goes 3.3GHz with just 1.35V real.
Finally, don't trust the onboard CPU thermal sensor and what it reads in BIOS or some software. Your temps are far from real...E6300@3GHz and 1.248V idles at 40'C under Noctua, which is better than the Scythe Infinity. Just think of it, in your case you have 3.3GHz and ~1.5V thats over 120W....you can't idle it at 28'C ( in your room must be like -10'C :) ) .

Stock voltges are enough for 3.2Ghz, until you hit 3.4... 3.4 is the time where you really need to pump the voltage. But 1.5 is seriously overkill.

But thats my point, I need almost 1.4V for 3Gig unless it's my cheapo PSU spiking. I am more than happy with 3.3Gig and it's very stable....no errors, and running at 3.2Gig 24/7 is fine for me and a terrific improvement over my old Opty 170 @ 3Gig.

Um tatty, I would recommend you buy a whole new PSU and not use two PSUs. Its probably your PSU spiking since i can easily reach 3.2...

Having the 2 actually adds to stability as the Gfx card is not drawing any power off the main and is particularily good in an SLi setup stability wise which I will have shortly, I may invest tho in an ultra high quality PSU, I can get away with 400-500W easily with the Thermaltake SLi PSU so it should not cost the earth.

Yes, I tried that last night, put the same amount of volts to get 3.2Gig as I did on the 9x multi and set her to 8x 400FSB and she would not even post, strange thing is this Mobo has a record of acheiving 500FSB....wtf? anyways, to be fair, only had it 3 days so still feeling my way a bit, I am happy with 3.3Gig for benching and 3.2Gig 24/7, if in time I get more then great!

I will probably get the 430W Enermax Eco Green thingy PSU, it has loads of Amps for a 430W, it wont have to power my graphics cards and should be stable and reliable, maybe that will help.

Hey tatty, u know how i said i was getting low bandwidths b4? Well i was running SISOFTsandra in the first place... also... i get 8.4Gb/s in Everest. 50.2ns

Overclocked to 2.8Ghz, ratio 1:1, @DDR800, 4-4-4-12

Thats better!! now can you get to 3Gig at 1:1 if you add a little voltage to the memory and loosten to 5-5-5-15@2T????? Should give you around 890Mhz?

It will do that... but around anything about 900 will fuck up....remember that this is Generic DDR667 and not high tier G-Skill (even so... its pretty powerful...) Might have to drop it to DDR400 (2:3 DDR:FSB)

Yes, I tried that last night, put the same amount of volts to get 3.2Gig as I did on the 9x multi and set her to 8x 400FSB and she would not even post, strange thing is this Mobo has a record of acheiving 500FSB....wtf? anyways, to be fair, only had it 3 days so still feeling my way a bit, I am happy with 3.3Gig for benching and 3.2Gig 24/7, if in time I get more then great!

Weird... tatty, sometimes the Intel Chipsets dont post when overclocked too high, when i clocked before to ddr 1066... wasnt nice... 30% of the time it POST.

I'll have to lap my base as its heavily damaged and i might buy some diamond thermalpaste, yes synthetic diamond, much better than AS5, no set-in and no drop in perfomance after a period. What temps are u guys getting for the northbridge? Apparently, before, when using AS5 the temps were much higher, then i switched to the zalman thermal paste... its like 40*C~34*C atm.

CPU, running a cool 34*C, ovevolted by .12mv or something, RAM was preovervolted@1.90v

u wanna join rite? This isnt the nvidia club where u post ur specs and dont come back... you converse.

Should I try to tighten the timings/overclock more?

Should I try to tighten the timings/overclock more?

I would try both TBH and run Sceincemark at the same CPU speeds but with the 2 different memory settings, I think you will find with Intel that the higher speed will beat the lower latencies, try to up the volts a little and try both, let me know how you get on. If upping volts and you have no heatspreaders on your generic memory try sticking a fan nearby for some active cooling, can help the memory overclock, these of mine run at 2.2V stock, I am currently on 2.3V to get where I am in specs but I have stopped tweaking at the moment cause it's getting boring/frustrating, will try some more at weekend.

Ohhh yeah and I think my chipset reading is a mean average between the Northbridge and Southbridge and at idle that is 30-32C.
