E6750/e6850 anyone got one yet i am tempted to sell my 6420 and get one
don't like the quads they run too hot awaiting to see the GO stepping quad results with much anticipation.


3ghz should be easily achieveable on air with a Q6600 and a nice after market cooler.

Apologies for jumping in, just wondering if I could grab a hand of help.

I've attempted overclocking but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.

E6600. 1GB RAM.

I've got my FSB @ 300 and set FSB & RAM at a 1:1 ratio. The RAM is now running at 533mhz as opposed to 667mhz.

My mobo is an Intel 975x and the RAM is DDR2 5300.

The only reason I'm asking is because I'm with stock cooling at 2.71Ghz and the test usually fails around 30 seconds with Orthos. So I'm stuck, Windows seems stable.

Anything you can guys can suggest?

Cheers.


Have you raised the vcore?
