| Changing my BIOS settings to reach 3.6GHZ on Q6600 G0 (BIOS Pics included) Hi there, I've just run Prime95 for about 8 hours and everything works stable at the following settings: FSB: 370 Voltage: 1.35625 Multiplyer: x9 All other BIOS settings left on Auto. These settings give the CPU a speed of 3.3GHZ. However, I recently tried to get it to 3.5GHZ at an FSB of 389 and Vcore of 1.40 - and the computer wouldn't boot windows or the BIOS - I had to reset the mobo. I am slowly trying to get the CPU to 3.5 or 3.6 though (depending on temperatures). What settings do you recommend I go for? I've been getting some advice but I am a bit confused now - unsure which settings to change, I've uploaded 3 pictures that make up the 1 section of my motherboard used for overclocking, if you could help me by pointing up which sections to change and what settings to input in order to reach 3.5-3.6GHZ , that'd be great! http://img58.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1001167qm1.jpg http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1001169vm3.jpg http://img58.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1001170pf5.jpg If it helps, my PC specs are: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 CPU ATI 4870 GPU ASUS P5Q PRO Motherboard OCZ DDR2 800MHZ 4GB RAM Vista 64Bit Antec 900 Case Corsair 650W PSU Scythe Mine CPU Cooler Thanks. |

| Re: Changing my BIOS settings to reach 3.6GHZ on Q6600 G0 (BIOS Pics included) It sounds like your memory, change DRAM frequency to manual and set the divider to 1:1. Now raise your FSB while inching up the CPU voltage. It should take you there! |
