How do i oc an intel q6600 to 3.0ghz?

sorry guys a bit new at this overclocking thing. i had seen many ways that this is done on youtube and every other one varies from the other. what is the safest way to oc this cpu from 2.4 to 3.0 using an asus bios? please help guys..

The best way to over clock the CPU, is to bump the FSB to 375 and the multiplier down to 8, this will give u the 3.0ghz speed but on a 1500fsb rating.

if u have the newer Go edition of the Q6600, then u may not have to apply any more Voltage to the CPU.
to keep the temps down on the CPU, i suggest changing the Vcore settings from Auto to roughly 1.2-1.25v.

Prime 95 test the system

aslong as the Prime95 test passes the 8 hour mark, then it should be able to be run 24\7 at the speed set.

if it fails the test, then up the Vcore in the Bios 1 notch at a time, and test again.

good luck
