Im fortunate to be one of few to overclock a Q6600 on a P5N-E SLI. It took me about a month, and is the first time ive ever overclocked a pc, so given the fact this board is not great for quads im quite chuffed
I managed to get it from 2.4Ghz to 3Ghz with a 1333fsb, cant remember exact spec, something like:
vcore 1.325v
Mem 2.1v
NB 1.56v
Offset +100mv
and loosened memory timings (someone said i would even have to lower my memory from 800mhz to 667mhz, i didnt!)
Anyway the problem, it wont go any higher. I was looking for a 3.2Ghz OC, but to no avail. It just doesnt boot and i end up having to clear the CMOS. Is there anyway to get higher?
Thanks!
