ok my specs are

Corsair XMS2 Ram PC5400
Asus P5NSLI mobo
2 7900GTs in SLI
XG Vortec 600w power supply
E6300 Stock 1.86ghz

yeh so do you think i could reach 2.2 or 2.4?ghz

[erwinz]

mm.. i think 2.2 is doable.. :D ..but it will be tricky.. i think nvidia chipset for intel have a fsb wall in 340, o so what I have read.. :D ..you only need a 315 fsb for your 2.2 OC..so its doable :D

good luck.. :D

i have my e6300 @ 3.1, ~37c idle ^ 45c load [stock hsf w/ as5]
everything @ default, i just kept raising the fsb :)

u can do 320fsb maximum, so 320fsb x 7 = 2.24GHz maximum... nforce chipset really sux, they are for 3dmark bench like X6800, u can get 320fsb but 15, 16 multiplier and pair it up with 2 x GeForce 7900GTX , not for most users.

3dmark06 world record was reached by the DFI nforce 590 beta board ... heh. LN2/cascade + X6800 + 2 x GEForce 7900GTX watercool perhaps

you guys are being very conservative... that chip can do 2.2-2.4 without even thinking about it, just the mobo is the problem atm. But I would just bump it up (straight away :D) to 340Mhz FSB and leave it at stock volts, that should boot fine and then of course run an orthos stress test overnight (for around 12hrs)

ok sweet! thanks for all the info guys, i was able to reach 2.0 but no further. Anyone know why? after i raise the FSB any higher the CPU just resets to the stock speeds. hmm...

Anyone know....?
