Hey fellas. I'm a bit new to the C2D overclocking scene and I seem to run into a FSB Wall with my E6550 C2D Processor. Currently I can find 100% stability at 416FSB on 7x multiplier which brings the cpu to 2.912GHZ from 2.33GHZ default. Vcore is currently set at default 1.35v, DDR voltage at 2.2v. MCH and CPU VTT at default as well (1.25/1.2).
I have tried upping the Vcore to 1.47 max, upping the MCH to 1.5x, CPU VTT to 1.49. Memory was and still is always at 2.2v max. Memory timings 5-5-5-15 and I have disabled C1E and EIST features in bios.
I also tried lowering the multiplier from 7x to 6x and I still can't seem to break 418FSB no matter how hard I try.
Are there any suggestions anyone would recommend me to try next?
