please remind me how to do this

So basically my psu has been playing up and my p.c has been a nightmare. As of tommorow it should all be resolved. I originally had my q6600 sitting on 3.6ghz. 333Fsb by 9
multiplier. I had to up the vcore which is all cool. My problem is that i had to increase north btidge volts but cant remember for the life of me what it is called in bios. I also cant remember what to do with the ram timings. My motherboard is an abit ip35 pro and my ram is 4gb of geil ultra low latency 800mhz. Thanks in advance.

Here are my settings for 3.6ghz (system in my sig, my chip is a 1.3 VID)...

External Clock - 400
Multiplier - 9x
DRAM Speed - 1:1:25 (DDR2-1000)
PCI-E - 100

CPU - 1.52v (1.42 or so under load)
DDR2 - 2.0v
CPU VTT - 1.23v
MCH - 1.29v
ICH - 1.05v
ICHIO - 1.5v
DDR2 REF - 0%
CPU GTL 0+2 - 67%
CPU GTL 1+3 - 67%

Limit CPUID MaxVal - Disabled
C1E - Auto
Execute Disable Bit - Enabled
Virtualisation - Disabled
EIST - Auto

RAM - By SPD

...you will need to watch the PWM temps. My board is bolt modded and I have a 60mm fan hovering above the PWM area keeping them cool. You may well need the bolt mod if it's not already done.

I also have 2x 40mm fans on the Northbridge, as it can get pretty toasty too.

Bear in mind that the above setting was when I was running 4gb RAM. I am still at 3.6 with 8gb, but have to run the memory on a different divider so that it runs at 800mhz. Any more was too much for the board to cope with. You will likely also need to do this as your RAM is only rated for 800mhz.

Oh and for what it's worth I found that anything above 1.3 for the MCH would cause instabilities. For some reason my board prefered the MCH to be kept fairly low.
