I also have a Q6600 B3 but on a GA-N680SLI-DQ6 motherboard (F4 bios-latest) with a Thermalright ULTRA-120 Extreme Cooler, Crucial 8500 ram, and a 8800 Ultra.
I was able to oc to the following settings (which is what I'm currently running) , but it will not go any further:
- cpu: 1.35v
- DDR2: +0.4v (2.2v total
-all other voltages: +0.1
Memory linked,
ratio 1:1
300Mhz, X9
So this gives me 2.7Ghz, 1200FSB, with the memory running at 600Mhz, 1.344VCore (from CPU-Z)
I tryied unlinking the memory, setting it at 667 , then tried to go up and even jumping straight to 333-334 bus speed but without success.
However once i jumped the bus speed to 340, i put the cpu at 1.5v and with the memory at 667 it did boot Win Vista 64. It crashed a few minutes later, and wont boot again at those settings.
I also have set bios to alarm in temps go over 40C. I never heared the buzzer. (the temp monitoring software doesn't work propperly after I swapped the cpu cooler...now it shows temps of 16C. It's over 20C in my room)
It will start loading windows up to a bus freq of 310-315 but will always crash before windows finishes loading or shortly after that.
If anybody has any suggestions that would be great.
