Hey, Im experiencing some problems with the overclocking of my brand new G0 Stepping Q6600. It just locks up on Windows Loading screen if i raise the FSB at all.... even if i raise the voltage to say 1.30 or 1.35... it doesnt make any difference at all. am i not giving it enough Voltage or what? Thanks

Specs:

P5N32-E
4GB GeIL Ultra CAS 4
Q6600 G0
8800GTX

You got the GeIL set @ 2.1 v and 1:1, slack timings for the cpu overclock?

I've had to do simular with my Geil memory running 4gb, slacken the timings.

Firstly, could you tell us more about your PC all the cards and add ons PSU etc. Hopefully we might see something from there.
Could you also detail the BIOS settings so we can look at that as well.
