I learned (and am still) by trial and error lol. Every time i encounter a problem, I google it and become more knowledgeable <--funny word

I suggest you OC the Q6600 between 3 and 3.4ghz, see what multiplier allows you to keep the ram closest to its stock speeds, then tighten the timings. I personally prefer having my ram unlinked, so that i can keep the Q6600 at 9x multiplier , and use less voltage to the FSB resulting in lower temps.

I'm stuck at 2.9ghz on my q6600. I tried adding a tad more and I noticed a drop in performance.

I have only added to the FSB, and haven't touched voltage or ram.
