IP35 Q6600 Overclock

[rodo]

Just wondering if anyone can look and see if this overclock @3GHZ looks well.. good. It runs OCCT for 6 hours stable. Will try longer sometime but can't see anything going wrong.

The only issue I have is it seems to take longer to get to the windows login page than it used to when turning on the pc but that may just be me... Overall very happy as I didn't change volts. In windows Vcore is 1.3V. Just wondered if anything further I could do to improve this overclock.

Bump.

One further thing sometimes vista sidebar and start-up apps can take a while. I don't know if this is normal with vista.

My OCCT temps after 8 hours (measured by Everest). Good for a Q6600 at 3GHZ?

Another question. Is it worthwhile putting on speed step? I mean my overclock will still kick in when it matters. Anyone got a case of for or against speed step when got an overclock mainly for gaming?
