p5b and q6600 g0 = no go for 'clocking

help me clock my q6600, im having trouble overclocking it, if i change the multi to 6 and the fsb to 400, exit and save changes, system restarts but the monitor doesnt come on. i have done pretty much exactly the same thing as when i done my 6300.

i am on the latest bios: 1216.

this happened once before on my e6300 and never happened again.

id be happy if i even got my ram 1:1

i know there are people on here that have the same mobo and cpu, so if you could let me know your bios settings that would be more than helpful

I've seen a few reports of P5B topping out at 380MHz with G0 quad cores.

Edit: But the good news is, the 25B are one of the best steppings

meaning? never understood (or know) what stepping is/does lol

woot! 3.2 and stable, so far.

401x8 1.375v in BIOS
pci-e 101
2.15v ram

few weeks on and the q66 is still running strong at 3.2, i want to go further. 450*8 = 3.6

im getting the same problem as stated in the first post. im affraid to push any more volts through her. current volts are 1.37v in BIOS, 1.325 in cpuz. could this be the problem resulting in no display when i try 450*8, ram volts where upped to 2.15v from 2.10v

ive heard of people using avoiding 350 to 400 and going straight to 401+

ive run mine at 400 and 450 with no hickups (other than the double boot) with my 6300, i had to use 401 with my q6600 though.

people have said that even at stock the p5b does the double boot thing
