Haha. I am running 3.4GHz on a 6300.

Get these liquid shots up soon!!! :P

I"m running the Almost the Same Setup and I'm new to overclocking

In the Bios What settings should I change to ran 3.4ghz

I have the Bad Axe2 with the E6600 my Ram is Corsair XMS2 DDR2-800

Under Processor Overrides

CPU Voltage = ??
Enhanced Power Slope = ??
Front Side Bus Voltage Override =??
MCH/ICH Voltage Override = ??

Host Clock Frequency = ??

My Current Memory Configuration is as follow

Current 800mhz

TcL = 5
tRCD =5
tRP = 5
tRASmin = 12
Voltage = 1.92

Any help would be great

Thanks

Well I don't have the settings for 3.4, but here is my settings for my current 2.9 which will take me to 3.3:

CPU volts: 1.285
Enhanced Power Slope: Disabled
FSB voltage: leave it alone for now
MCH/ICH voltage: leave it alone for now aswell
Host clock freq: should be at 266, this is what you will cange to overclock, I genrally go up 10 mhz at a time and try to boot to windows, then when I get to a point of instability I bump the vCore a notch/change mem timings until I can boot to windows.

EDIT: also read in your manual for how to boot to the maitnance menu of the BIOS to disable C1E and Watchdog timer, more im portantly the Watchdog timer because that will severley limit your overclocking.

K, firstly as it probably already done, but make sure "fail-safe watchdog" is disabled under watchdog.

Really, all my voltages are stock except for my RAM and my CPU.

1. Enable Enhanced Power Slope
2. Actually I forget my bios settings, give me a few minutes and I'll pull them up

I got it up to 3.2 Last night but It fails on ORTHOS after 15min

My Final Goal is 3.6 but I want to be stable at 3.4 1st..

Thanks

Alright, now for the water cooling:

First my block, take note of the second flame down on the left, it is DAMN close to the block, I can't even get a piece of paper in there. I got very lucky as it won't fit the other way.


Closeup of before mentioned flame to block clearance.


My rad.


My res.

K, heres my setting for 3.4Ghz. One thing I must stress about this MB, it has one major flaw. If you have a failed OC setting and you need to do a CMOS reset right? However, my PC would not boot with the CMOS reset as it sets the memory voltage to 1.84v which was not enough to get even 1 stick of my Ballistix on, so I got a 3 beep no memory warning. Thank god my sister had some cheepo deepo ddr2 in her computer. Stealing siblings RAM FTW.

CPU Voltage- 1.3500
Power Slope - Enabled
FSB Voltage - 1.250
MCH Voltagee - 1.550


FSB - 378


Memory Reference Frequency (Strap) - 266
Memory Frequency - 667

2.24 volts




Fail-safe Watchdog - disabled
EC1(or what ever it is) - disabled

I'll try your seetings when I get home.. I'm stuck in a datacenter rebuilding a Exchange server that I want to throw in the trash.

This is a new thing I found the other day. I got my PC Stable @ 3.4GHz the other Day, all I changed was the Memory Voltage up to 2.0v from 1.9, and the cpu voltage then change the memory so it was 1:1 266/533.

It seemed really stable but when I ran 3dmark06 my scores were down over 50% then when I run it at Stock Speeds??
