I did have another thread, but that was more of a questions thread. I've got arctic silver, and a second cpu fan, and temps have dropped 6 degrees or more on all four cores. I hope this thread will help me achieve a decent overclock.
System:
Q6600 G0 SLACR VID 1.3volts
4 x 1gb Corsair XMS3
Asus Striker II Extreme 790i Ultra
9800 GTX+
EDIT - since first posting this, I've by passed 1400 -1600 and is currently stable:
FSB 1600
multi 9x
Vcore : 1.48750
Loadline Calibration : Enabled
pll : auto
vtt : auto
mem : 1.66
NB : 1.46
SB : 1.6
It is unstable when FSB : RAM ratio is set to unlinked, I get instant errors with intel linpack. But, with 5:4 divider, and running ram at 1280 it is stable.
I thought unlinked left the ram alone? Whats up?
EDIT 2 - Temps are arpund 40 degrees idle, and around 67 average on prime85 after 5 minutes. Are these a little on the high side? Intel Burn Test fails straight away with maximum memory is selected. It causes BSOD within 2 minutes on half memory option. What does this indicate?
