Where is now? xDI had an e6600...
Thanx for all sesdave! You're a f u c k i n' master!!!...and it needed 1.5v to get to 3.6 stable(400x9) so 1.4375 isnt out of line. Yours may not even run at 3.6. All CPUs are different = some run higher on less volts its luck of the draw. You are best to enter manual settings on the P5K as some are adjusted automatically when you raise FSB and leave them on auto. Not always what you want. Try these and see how you get on. Change the FSB to 350 for starters but leave vcore at 1.45v. Run the RAM 1:1. Increase FSB in increments of 10 . Once you establish the maximum you can boot stable at with 1.45v raise vcore by .025v icrements until you reach 3.6(if you can that is) Raise NB to 1.55 if you start struggling first -then increase vcore until you get stable. I wouldnt go above 1.5v at this point and only if you temps look okay. PC wizard has a nice temp monitor facility. Download from here http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php load it and then minimise - temps will appear in top right corner of screenBut I have one more question, about the temp. I've readed in another forum that 1.45-1.5V maybe is dangerous for the CPU if it's air cooled. Notice that I have the Asus Silent Square... Well, I can see the temps carefully, but over 60ºC is dangerous no? Or the Core2Duo can work at more temperature?
Imagine that finally I get 3.6GHz stable with for example 1,475 in bios (1,45 in cpu-z or CoreTemp). Would be this configuration appropiate for 24/7?
Anybody have this voltajes on air cooling???
Thanks
