Hi what you guys think of this clock? I know its not the best i expected more from a 29B E6600?

Managed to get it to 3.2GHz on stock voltage.

Struggled from there onwards but have now got 3.4GHz on 1.48V in Bios.

Can i expected much more? Load temps dont go over 60C so far.

FSB is about 377Mhz, rest of rig is in my sig.
 
Thermaltakes bigwater 745. Just failed prime95 testing on 3.4GHz. So ive put it back down to 3.2GHz on stock. Looks like i need to go over 1.5V to get past 3.4GHz lol :(

Keep all the voltages on auto apart from cpu and memory.

Are you running them ram 'unlinked' or linked and async?

Yes i have only so far altered only the CPU and memory voltage.
Ram is unlinked. What is async?
 
Great thanks for that its interesting. Ive got mine on 3.3GHz now, seems to be where its happy without extra juice. Seems the Mobo is holding us back?
