Gigabyte DS3 rev 1 (I think) & Q6600 G0

I'm running the F10 bios - I presume all should be ok?

Should I be ok with 2.8?

His is the original P965 version. You'll have no problems with your P35 version.

To answer my previous question - it'll be good for 2.8?

By identified do you mean it'll just be displayed incorrectly or that it won't work properly?

Robert · 22 Sep 2007 at 15:58

Oh well - flashed to F12 now just to be sure.

I have an arctic freezer 7 pro - for who ever asked. I'm looking at running one at 2.8.

And you think thats bad? On Air?

Heres my Q6600 out of the box in my P965-DS3 Rev. 1

Started off at 3.0 which it did on stock volts, then 3.2 on stock, one core failed prime after two hours so then I bit the bullet and went for 3.4Ghz as that was what I had my E6420 at with 1.45V

Tried at 1.4V but again same core died after 30 minutes, so popped it up to 1.45 and here she is just after starting. vdroop isn't too bad either.

Wonder what the big fuss is about, I can see maybe having to go for a P35 if you really want to get those last few hundred mhz for the penultimate overclock, but for a mid to high overclock like 3.2 or 3.4 I think you would do well to keep your 965-DS3 or DS4 Rev 1

Did it go on ok?
