I have the Q9650 at 450 Bus. I can't say it'll do it with the QX6700, not sure I've seen anyone running that combo.

Wow Trigger it takes that much cpu voltage to run at 4.0 ghz ? seems high.
Neo Rtr, Can be done, i dont have a quad, but im sure you can do it, but will definitly take some work to get there, have to play with voltages, gtls.
I would get some crucial ballistic ddr3 1600mgz or crucial ballistic 2000mgz kit, im running the 2000 kit, great stuff. Getting your quad to where you want it will be easier with 2gigs of ram, more hard with 4 gigs of ram.
Thats insane, what bios u running ? my 1202 bios dont over volt even close to that. 1.28 bios , everest 1.31
For me 1202 bios LLC enabled bios set 1.34375vcore = 1.39v CPUz or Everest Ultimate CPUID or CoreTemp
Have you tried 7-7-7-20 2t timings with 2x2 seems to me if your kit is the PVS34G2000LLKN rated to run PC3-16000 (2000MHz) 9-9-9-24 @ 2.0V then it should be no problem. If it doesn't they may need rma'd too.
Did you ever post all your bios settings if not grab my template a few post back and add your settings to it.
Who you refering to owncraftsman ?
Ok this is wierd. My pc is more or less stable now, need to iron out some issues with ram. Never had a problem all day yesterday.
I started it from cold this morning and POST froze on USB INIT. Any ideas why?
Thanks for the notes guys. will look at this further.
thank you
OK, found out that this USB INIT freze during POST is due to me setting fsb and ram to linked and synced. If I set to unlinked and both 1600 it is ok. Any ideas?
I told you to boost you voltage to 1.85:shrug:.
EDIT - nvm, I'm just going to stay at 3ghz with ram linked and synced. It's happy and stable. Just spent 3 months trying to get it stable at any setting without success.
I've been told that the L807A batch that I've got, coupled with this board is hopeless. I've been told that if I want more, go 45nm.
My hard drive errors and BIOS freezes only happens when overclocking. It's sweet now at stock settings, so something is disagreeing with something.
whats a good program to test memory in vista itself.As if i do small fft prime 95 runs all good but when i do blend it fails like straight away.
dowload memtest here http://hcidesign.com/memtest/MemTest.zip you can use it while in windows.
You have a quad kullymontana ?
Can you pass memtest in windows i gave you ? check that first, you have 2 gigs memory, or 4 ?
Ok so is your cpu then. Try giving your cpu more voltage, and run again and see what happens, if still fails, then your probally need to play with cpu gtl voltages. Up your vtt to 1.32 in bios, and nbv to 1.50 in bios, see if passes.
