Hey, ive been away from overclocking a long time and i had forgotten to reoverclock my cpu after having to run everything stock a long time ago to sort out a problem i had.

Now im trying to hit 3.4ghz but i find i cant really remeber any of the settings i used to have.

It appears to not even post without at least 1.45v through. But im unsure whats expected voltages for a q6600 GO for 3.4ghz, i mean i thought you could run 3ghz at almost stock voltages and im having to put 1.4v through mine, though i think it can go a bit lower.

My MCH is at 1.27v but that didn't seem to help it.

:EDIT:

From the looks of it i may need to put my MCH a lot higher? some people running 1.33 and 1.41 ?
