OC'ing Woes

Been trying to overclock my E6600 (B2 Revision).
However I cant seem to get stable past 1333 fsb / 3.0 Ghz - 1.368v
I have had 3.25 Ghz but cant remember how.
I'm not really sure on overclocking past this point.

Motherboard is BFG 680i SLi if that helps, updated bios etc.

Anyone got any ideas.

Also, my memory, Corsair 4GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator DHX PC2-6400C5 TwinX (2x2gb)
This memory for me doesn't seem to want to OC at all. I really cant think why.

Yeah, was just a few days ago i got the 3.25ghz.
I've had the ram all the time i've had the cpu and its always been unlinked, so i've had the ram at 800 and fsb at 1333.

I've tried today to get the volts up a bit and fsb up like i had before but its doesnt want to work anymore. Thus came this thread

I want stable 3.3Ghz so i can break 12k 3dmark06, had 11961 with 3.25ghz

Yeah temperatures are fine, no problems there 36-37 idle, 45-49 depending on load. im not sure about fsb holes, what are they?

ok ty

i guess i'll just keep trying.

Shouldn't do the cpu any real harm should it?
