Good evening all, I could really do with some expert opinions on whether I am about to blow my PC up or not. As you can probably tell already I am completely new to the overclocking game and all the abbreviations and technical bios names have finally gotten the better of me. Rather than trying to explain what I have done, I have attached 2 pictures of my first attempt at an overclock on a EVGA 750i and Q6600. The ram is at default and am just trying to concentrate on a stable clock before I go there, although I have already had to take 2x1024 dimms out in order to boot.
Is the anything glaringly obvious that I have done wrong or need to change, I am not trying to break records just to achieve a good stable overclock if possible around 3.2Ghz?. Is it also possible to re-enable SPEEDSTEP with my current settings or am I asking for trouble.
The temps look ok to me, I believe the "88 oc" motherboard reading is duff as Everest did not recognise my MB.
I truly appreciate any advice or help you can give,
Regards
