Alrighty, got my new watercooling kit in and am loving it, but i am having problems overclocking my q6600. With a 400fsb with a 6x multiplyier (= 2.4ghz which is stock) and a 1.5v core its not stable, but with a 334fsb and a 9x multiplier (= ~3ghz) at 1.2v it is stable... so it seems something else other than my cpu... Here are my BIOS settings, most I'm not sure what 99% of them do, so any info on how to change them would be greatly appreciated.
CPU Feature:
Thermal Management Control - Disabled
PPM (EIST) Mode - Disabled
Limit CPUID MaxVal - Disabled
C1E Function - Disabled
Execute Disable Bit - Enabled
Virtualization Technology - Enabled
Core Multiprocessing - Enabled
Voltage Settings:
CPU VID Control = 1.525v
CPU VID Special Add = Auto
DRAM Voltage = 2.1v
SB 1.05v Voltage = 1.150v
SB Core/CPU PLL Voltage = 1.55v
NB Core Voltage = 1.41v
CPU VTT Voltage = 1.25v
Vcore Drop Control = Enabled
Clockgen Voltage Control = 3.45v
GTL + Buffers Strength = Strong
Host Slew Rate = Strong
GTL RFF Voltage Control = Disable
DRAM Timing:
Enhanced Data Transmitting - Auto
Enhanced Addressing - Auto
tCL = 5
tRCD = 5
tRP = 5
tRAS = 15
DIMM 1 CLK Fine Delay - Current[13]
DIMM 2 CLK Fine Delay - Current[5]
DIMM 3 CLK Fine Delay - Current[12]
DIMM 4 CLK Fine Delay - Current[4]
*everything else in this section is set to auto
Other settings...
CPU, PCIE, SATA Spread Spectrum are all set to Disabled
Bootup Clock - Auto
Clock VCO Divider - Auto
Thanks for the help!
