hey m8, welcome to Overclock.net
start by filling out your full specs for your system in the user cp at the top of the page. from what i can tell it will most likly be your motherboard holding you back as the p3x range does find it hard to hit high fsb with q cores. it could also be a number of other things but without more info i would just be throwing more guesses at you like that 1.

First thing is are you running a stock cooler? Have you set you ram timmings and voltage? Have you disabled speedstep, c1e, eist and anything spreed sprecturm in the bios yet?
DL these software as you'll be needing them for viewing your progress, Occt, realtemp, prime95, Intel burn test, cpu-z. Also please fill in ( user CP ) at the top of the page and in the left side ( add system ). This info will help ocn members help you.
