E6600, P5W DH Delux, Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro - Advice?

[apel444]

Hi, I have a E6600 at a stock speed of 2.4GHZ, i overclocked it to 2.8 on my motherboard (Asus P5W DH Deluxe) and it ran at 27C with my cooler (arctic cooling freezer 7 pro, in a p180 case).

Then my psu busted.... ive sent it back and the company say it is faulty, yet i hope this is not due to my overclocking.

I have 800mhz ram and i'de like to get a 1:1 ratio if possilbe, does anyone have and advice?

Thanks in advance, Will

The PSU dying is not your falt, all cheap PSU's die young. Was your previous OC stable?

PSU's will simply shut down if they get to much strain. Well, most of them.

As for your memory vs FSB, you could put the multiplier down to 9x, then go to 400 FSB. That would give you 3.6 ghz on the CPU (which is a good number) and 1:1 for the memory (no memory OC needed) Then simply tighten the timings.
