**Official ABIT IP-35 Pro Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[Ace-a-Rue]

My specs are listed in sig allready! A possible explanation of what not to set to high and some pointers lets say starting off at 3.1-3.2ghz and a little bit of info on say these settings will do you until about this high above that you need to focus on this that the other thing . I mean I will learn as I go and I don't want you to O.C my rig for me and all just some pointers so I do not do any damage to Raid Controller and what not. I ask you because you have a Q6600 and a Areca Card

I want to see what this Q6600 has to give seeing how ultimately I will keep it at 3.4ghz but I do want to play with my new stuff I am sure you understand

you are to fearful about overclocking and what you will do to the board or cpu...

1st thing you do, is my heatpipe mod.

2nd, start conservatively with the overclock..take it up to around 350 FSB without any adjustment of the voltages...from there, you are on your own...i can not tell you what to set because your board and hardware are going to be different than mine...good luck!

EDIT: is that a TEC cooler you have!?..if so, get rid of it!...worthless with a quad core!...go air or water.
