The highest I can get the FSB is about 344 with a 9x multiplier and run stable. I guess its a fair overclock but I was hoping for a bit more
I have have one of the earlier Q6600 chips with the G0 stepping so I was told it should be a good overclocker, though Im thinking my memory is holding me back. Ive tried raising the voltage to the cpu but that didnt seem to change anything.
I have 4 2gb modules of PC6400 DDR2 memory. When I try to raise the FSB higher it wont boot to windows and I sometimes get blue screens which sometimes mention memory errors
All settings are at auto in the Bios and I also turned off speedstep to keep the processor always running at max speed. The bios is reporting that the timings are 6-6-6-18 which seems not so good and Im not sure if thats correct for the ram or not?
Im not sure what settings I might be able to change to allow me to raise the FSB?
