Hey guys, I tried to overclock my Xeon via SetFSB and WR-Everything. I know the Pll and which byte I have to change and it works, but only if I increase the value very slightly. (about 5 points) When I change it harder, the PC is going to freeze.
Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? I know serverboards are not made for overclocking, but I want to get that running. Im happy about every answer.

The problem you're having is that you aren't raising the Voltage to allow the overclock to go further. if you can get control of Voltage with RW everything then you will be good.
The unlocked CPUs allow raising Voltage also.mTo get a good overclock you need, Cooling, Voltage, and then FSB/Multiplier. I put them in that order for a reason.
Those CPUs don't deal in Volts, but Current I think. So visit some forums and see what they're calling it.

With some modding you can do a very slight oc with the t3500 but the chance of killing your board is extremely high for a 5% non guaranteed working oc.

Hey Jaslion,

thanks for your answer! What type of modding youre talking about?

Hey Susquehannock,

thanks for your answer too. I have a six core CPU, and I was impressed of the overclocking results with this processor (with about 4ghz and more!).

Maybe I will buy a W3690, as William said...

t3500 is NOT for ovecklocking! BIOS does not support overcklocking. There is no access to voltage control. You still can overclock a little bit, ~100mhz
