Im trying to get the max out of my q660, and starting to overclock more than the guide for 3.3ghz, ive managed to get upto 3.6hz, but as soon as I run prime 95 in vista it crashes (obviously wrong settings)
Ive got the ip35 pro xe board
At the moment ive got it upto 3.4 running stable 55c max temp
Heres the list of my settings in bios atm:
CPU:
External Clock: 378mhz
Multiplier: 9
DRAM Speed: 1:1.25 (DDR2 - 945)
PCI Express: 105mhz
VOLTAGES:
CPU Core: 1.4750
DDR2: 2.300
CPU VTT: 1.27
MCH 1.25V: 1.37
ICH 1.05V: 1.15
ICH10 1.5V: 1.55
DDR2 Referance: 0%
CPU GTLREF 0&2: 67%
CPU GTLREF 1&3: 67%
RAM:
CAS Latency: 5
RAS# to CAS# Delay: 5
RAS# Precharge: 5
Precharge Delay: 15
Rest of settings in this page set to auto
PCI compliancy mode: v1.0a
PEG FORCE x1: DISABLED
Init Display 1st: PCIEx
I have a VID of 1.3250
Anything else I might need to change as well?
I know I can get more out of this as well, as ive seen on another forum someone managed to get 4.1ghz out of his q660!! (i think he had a low VID though)
EDIT NOT completely stable with these settings above as I just had a BSOD error after running prime 95 for around 30 mins
