can any1 post step by step tutorial in overclocking my q6600 i been trying to do so for 4 months on and off but highest i got was 2.5 with occasional freezes =(

im using a asus p5n-e sli revision 1301, 4gb ddr2 ,windows xp pro sp3

i been reading so many tutorials but they dont seem to work so well for me

currently running at 2.4ghz stock while 90% of q6600 owners running at 3.0ghz+(i think..lol)

While overclocking a Core2 Duo is relatively easy, overclocking a Q6600 on that motherboard might prove challenging.

nForce arnt the best OCer.

Im running a E6850 3.6ghz on a 650I.

just waiting to find a goof WC kit to try to go further.

I'm not bashing you, but I'm sorta tired of this styma that NForce cannot OC. Fact is there are plenty of Intel boards that won't OC either. It's really a hit or miss with your CPU motherboard combo.






Here is an amazing OC with Nvidia board. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/250010-29-e8500-8ghz

correct, just because one board and cpu can't overclock dosent mean with the same board and idderent cpu can't either.

I had the P5NE-Sli mobo with an 2.1GHz c2d cpu in it and got it to 2.6 with no problems.

If you hit the nail one the head with the correct combo then you should be able to overclock fine.

yeah i know, and we all know, but i dont think you can reach really over 4ghz on an nforce mobo. Im currently running 3.6 and waiting for WC to go further.

Ill try.....

I have an E6850, best I could do on air was 3.8ghz. For 4ghz, I think the WC setup you have coming should help.
