Hi guys, I've recently overclocked my E6600 to 3.2ghz x9 multiplier - 1.45v (Bios) on my P5k Deluxe mobo with 2x 1GB 6400 Corsair Dominators @2.2v 4-4-4-12 711mhz (1:1 ratio).
I cant seem to get any higher than this. Temperature is fine according to TAT @ 35-38 idle and 48-55 load.
When I run Orthos Blend @ 3.3 ghz it stops within a few seconds. But when I run the Small FFTs CPU Stress its stable for as long as I left it on which was around 1 hour.
Could it be my memory thats holding me back?
My friend that has the exact same system apart from memory which is the Corsair 5-5-5-12 and has 3-5c higher CPU temps, can overclock his above 3.5ghz orthos blend stable??? His settings are all exactly the same as mine, I even raised my memory timings to match his!
Does the memory play a big part in this? Any help will be great.
If there is anything I missed out that you need to know to help let me know.
