Can I hit 3.3Ghz with this bundle?

Would it be possible to OC the Q6600 to around 3.3Ghz with this bundle?

Intel Q6600 "Energy Efficient" OEM CPU
Asus P5N-T Deluxe nForce 780i Motherboard
OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) Reaper 1066MHz RAM
Tuniq Tower

Thanks for any info. TiM.

The only reason I was choosing an nVidia board was for the SLi.. at a later date I 'might' add another 8800gtx..

Not sure what to do.. If I get an IP35 Pro board im closing the option for SLi.. But would I really need SLi? Im sure the OCd Q6600 kicks butt anyway.

I am running a 24" monitor tho, 1920 x 1200

What IP35 Pro board would you recommend?

Ok, so how does this setup look? Memory ok for OCing etc?


OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-8500C5 1066MHz SLI-Ready Edition Dual Channel DDR2

Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - OEM

Tuniq Tower 120-LFB CPU Cooler (Socket 478/754/939/940/AM2/LGA775)

Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound (3.5g)

Asus P5K Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Or should I go for the Abit IP35 Pro.. better for OCing?
