Depends on your cooling; high end air, I'd say 1.5v, but it all depends on your temps and your board, those voltage measurements aren't exactly precise. End of the day, if the temps are good, don't worry.Quote:

High end air cooling I wish, high end water cooling is what I've got :mrgreen:
You've got plenty of headroom to play with then.Quote:

Kinda tried to reduce the size abit, ok quality I suppose :-/
What are these?
a few of the BIOS screens for the AB9 Pro.. look on page 3 and I said I'd put some pics up ;)
Kinda got the pics the wrong way around.. should be bottom from top hehe
Thanks. :)
All we need really, is some clear shots showing the stock settings and then 300fsb, the equivalent to the ones in the guide, Ill add them once they are done. Cheers!
Stuck :)
Fantastic.:bowdown: guide I now have my E6600 running at 3.2Ghz, stock voltage and a temp of 45*c under load running Orthos for the past 12 hours. I will try for more when the CPU is run in for a few days. Thanks again for a fantastic easy to follow guide.:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown::mrgreen:
Oooh! :)Quote:

I want to hit 3.6ghz, but I believe the temps would begin to get too high for my liking :(
Should the Nbridge hs be as hot as that?!
(Asus probe seems to thinks its at 44C, but I beg to differ)
oh and LOL at your mobo in your system clunk, hahaha
I've read that the NB does indeed get hot when upping the FSB. Some people have found that the NB HS does not make very good contact with the NB itself, and reseating with new TC helps. Also, you can use the fan that came with the mobo to help cool the NB.
A more drastic measure would be to buy a new NB HSF.
You can always grab an aftermarket heatsink, doesnt have to be anything expensive, something like a zalman passive with a breeze on it will do. You will need a set of ramsinks for the area round the cpu and these will work better than the rubbish heatpipe thing they put on the board. Total cost about a tenner. :)Quote:

If you want to keep the Asus cooler, take it off and check if its flush, if it isnt, you can easily bend it until it is, then remove the thermal paste that asus made from concrete, and put some AS5 or ceramique on there.
Right second question, how do I go about finding out the temperature of the nothbridge or is it not possible, in uGuru, all I've got is cpu, system, pwn phase 1 all the way to pwn phase 5.
Is it not the system temp, or MB or something like that?
would'nt have a clue tbh, the system temp never gets above 35c and all five PWN's never go above 50c so I'm stumped.
