I'm having issues trying to overclock my CPU. Before I get to the issues, here's my system (I'm listing everything to be thorough).
CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4
MOBO - Gigabyte EP45-UD3P
RAM - Corsair 2 sticks X 2g 1066
VGA - Radeon HD 5870
OS - Windows 7 64
Here's the problem. I'm trying to overclock the CPU to 3.0 or 3.2. I've already purchased an aftermarket fan for this purpose. When I input the following:
333 frequency
x9 multiplyer
for 3.0,
my system does not boot properly. I have yet to adjust the voltage. Honestly, I wouldn't know how much to adjust it by. I'm afraid I'll fry the damn thing. Can anyone give me a ballpark estimate?
