Never bothered to overclock my cpu until now and im stuck with the voltage part of the overclock. Im pretty sure I have the fsb/cpu multiplier and ram settings correct but im not really sure about all the voltage settings and how to set them to make my system stable. My setup:
Intel Quad Core Q6600 2.4ghz OC'd to 3.3ghz
Asus P5KC Motherboard
Gigabyte GTX 460 Video Card
Patriot PC2-6400 800mhz DDR2 4gigs
WD Viking Sata 10K RPM 150gigs HDD
Windows 7 64bit Ultimate
My problem is that when I try to run prime95 I get errors and it crashes, and even some games (Black Ops, Darkfall, Rift) just randomly completely close, and on occasion I do get a blue screen. I've looked around and most say that I need to up the voltages. But I dont know for sure what settings do what with voltages. Here is a CPUZ and Speedfan screenshot of my info:
I have tinkered with some of the settings but no matter what I did the vcore never seemed to go up in CPUZ. So as you can see im stuck and seeking some advice on and looking to see what others have for their voltages.
Here are my current motherboard settings:
CPU Ratio Setting: 9.0
FSB Strap to Northbridge: 333Mhz
FSB Frequency: 370
PCIE Frequency: Auto
DRAM Frequency: DDR2-889Mhz
DRAM Command Rate: Auto
CAS# Latency: 4
RAS# to CAS# Delay: 4 DRAM Clocks
RAS# Pre Time: 4 DRAM Clocks
RAS# ACT Time: 12 DRAM Clocks
RAS# to RAS# Delay: Auto
REF Cycle Time: Auto
Write Recovery Time: Auto
Write to Read Delay: Auto
Read To PRE Time: Auto
DRAM Static Read Control: Enabled
DRAM Dynamic Write Control: Disabled
Adjust CHA Skew Support: Disabled
Adjust CHB Skew Support: Disabled
Transaction Booster: Disabled
CPU Voltage: Auto
CPU PLL Voltage: Auto
FSB Termination Voltage: Auto
DRAM Voltage: Auto
NB Voltage: Auto
Clock Over-Charge Voltage: Auto
Load-Line Calibration: Auto
CPU GTL Voltage Reference: Auto
NB GTL Voltage Reference: Auto
CPU Spread Spectrum: Disabled
PCIE Spread Spectrum: Disabled
Can anyone help me with my current setup with the voltages? And how does the temps look? Any help would be appreciated.
