Re: C2D Overclocking Guide For Beginners P5K Add-On

Yo Clank, how much do you think it is o.k. to go over Intels spec's?
Maybe you have some insight in the whereabouts of were these Q6600 starts to burnout?

Had some weird problems with some programs like Sandra Sisoftware,
dang that bugger complains about mdacs, databases and crap.
Never got it started o.k. it just bitched.

On top of this, after Sandra install it took my rig like 15 mins to boot up through screens and bios before it hit windows,
I tried booting again - same crapus
uninstalled Sandra - it booted so fast I missed to del into bios....
Now aint that weird?

Now I am running with Prime95 instead, had some failiures with to low core voltages.


Started 2 worry but at 1,2875 it suddenly seemed quite happy and ran Prime95 2hrs failfree =)


I backed up a bit on my fsb to play with my mem caps,

I read up on the memory bit in the guide,
I run my Mushkin XP2-8500 at 1:1 on 2,2V (333 x 2 = ddr667)

And my question is about dividers,
should I strive for the 1067 divider for optimal OC?
