3.0 to 3.2 E6600

O.k I want to move to the next step up, I'm currently running 333X9=3.0GHZ and 1000MHz on my ram. Plus I want to get my ram back down to 800MHZ.
Would 400X8 be the most sensible option, if so what should I run my Vcore at? 1.4V?

Can u actually change the multi??? I would change your mem divider so you can still run with a high FSB. As for v core, see waht your max overclock is and once you hit a wall raise your v core a little and respeat the process.

what cooler are you using?

Born_2_Kill_83 · 13 Jul 2007 at 19:20

Asus silent knight

To get to 3.2GHz, will depend on CPU and/or FSB capabilities.....356x9 is how I have mine to get to 3.2GHz, but 400x8 is perhaps ideal as this will have your RAM slap on the 800MHz

.....but, your motherboard may simply not let you get to 400FSB :eek:

As has been said time and time before, you gotta just fiddle around trialing settings, as 1 setup to another (even seemingly identical kit !) does not equate to same results when OC'ing......

Why dont you look at the P5B-Delux official thread for overclocking? Will give you loads of hints and tips.

As for me, I am running at 3.4GHz but my mobo will not handle a higher FSB and post.

Think I will go for a Asus IP35 next, drop the multi and try and hit 3.4Ghz with +400Mhz FSB

Oh, and I will lap the CPU as its domed like hell and not getting the best from my water cooling setup

try CPU vcore 1.55v, FSB to 400MHz 9x multi, increase NB voltage 1 level, run orthos, theres 3,6GHz for ya

O.k can you guys check this out please.
I'm now running 355X9 @ 3.2GHZ with memory volts of 2.15V divider 1:1, seem to have it running stable, are these volts o.k for OCZ gold PC6400?
Also here are my ram speeds, becourse my divider is @1:1 I'm only running 355MHZ. Does this mean my ram is running slower than a factory standard 400MHZ?

Yes your memory is running slower than factory.
