Striker pwns EVGA with Q6600 G0

[Khaotic]

Yeagh, I'm one of those guys who can't get his Q6600 up above 3.0 (333x9) either. I let go on an AWESOME Xeon that could hit 3600 on this board, and now i'm certianly regretting it - being a gamer. I've got an sli setup with the 8800gtx and have 4GB of OCZ ram installed. I've even tried using a 2GB set of Corsair Dominator and still can't get past the 333 hump.

Kup listed some FSB holes "from 400-424, then from about 450-474" with a hint at the lower FSB holes. Woudl those just happen to start at 334?

I don't have another board to test this Q6600 on, but I don't think it's a stellar overclocker like some people got. I've tried every setting recommended here for Q6600, and 333x9 is ALL I can get. So I've been thinking about going back to a Dual core, just to get some Mhz back.

Along those lines, you folks are saying that the Striker Extreme isn't overclocking a 1333 FSB chip worth a crap?

My striker did 445FSB with the E6850 for 4ghz stablke operation though I needed to limit the ram speed to 1000Mhz, 1066Mhz speed didn't work for me while it did nicely with the e6600...

Some weird stuff going on there...
