Hi all,

I'm brand spanking new at OC'ing.

So help me out here.

Q6600 @ stock 2.4ghz (although CPU-Z showing it drops to 1.6, presuming some intelligent software does that when no load)
Gigabyte 965P-DQ6
2x 1gb DDR2-6400 (400mhz, 5-5-5-18, FSB:DRAM 2:3)
8800GT 512mb

Here is a photo of my BIOS OC page.

So guys...

what first?

Thanks :D
 
first up the cpu clock ratio to 8x
then the fsb to 375
change Ram multiplier so the ram speed is as close to 800 as posable
and change the cpu voltage to 1.35
that will give you 3Ghz.
Then boot in to windows
run OCCT hour test to see if its stable
also use core temp to keep an eye on the cpu temp well you are doing the OCCT strest test

Thanks chief - will give this a shot now :D
