Overclocking my e6600 Latest

[mattyg]

Hiya guys

Right i have now upgraded my psu and my memory,
I had my rig running at 3.2ghz with corsair value select ram clocked 1:1

Now I have clocked my cpu to 400x8 so my fsb is not holding me back(think thats right)
mem running 4-4-4-12. 1:1

I`m struggling to get it past 3.3 with a x9 Its not the temps it just stops orthos after a few seconds/minutes

Since changing to a x8 tat can show a temp differance of nearly 10deg differance than speedfan and cpu-z. and tat does not show speedstep but cpu-z does

Any help with what to do next I know 3.2 is good but when you get the bug you get the bug

cheers
matt

OK i can get it to 3.4 ghz but it takes 1.5v vcore and the temps rise to 60deg in orthos after 20 mins

I would be happy with that.

Does it go any higher though?

Orthos takes my E2140 to 55-57 deg but when playing games for instance i don't go above 44 deg.

I ran orthos overnight

it just seems to become unstable anything higher than that

it will do super pi mod in 15.422 my previous p4 3.2 took 43 secs so a lot quicker

think its on to my memory now
