    I lowered the voltages on everything and still fine at 3.0 Everest says my vcore is 1.34 actual on load I think I can go lower

    What you got set in Bios mate . seeing ya VID is only 1.25 or such you can try to set 1.3250 in bios wil drop to 1.275 or such under full load...

    Glad you got it stable mate...
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree

    Here are the current BIOS numbers so far stable for 20 min or so done the PI calc and WCG is running at 100% on all cores as I type this:

    Vcore 1.325 Everest reads 1.28 on load
    Mem 2.0
    NB 1.35
    SB 1.50
    CPUVTT 1.30

    seems to be stable @ 9*333 for 3.0 you think i can lower MB voltages some more?

    ok well after 3hours of all 4 cores at 100% (WCG) i'm at 58c (CPU) 73 70 68 67 (core 1,2,3,4) 42c Mboard

    Are you on a stock cooler? or some alternative CPU cooling? Cause this is mine on WCG @ 3.6 on water

    Sorry bout the large size

    Q6600 @ 3.6, cheap water cooling, and crunching 24/7

    My cooling is not that great I have a Zalman Resorator cooling the CPU the rest of the board is on air. I was thinking about upgrading the cooling but I have no Idea what direction to go. Any tips would be appriciated.

    Hi Grey, we got about the same setting except for 2 thing,
    I've got a bit less temperature (not much... my max on 1st core is 70 at worst)
    But what make me more worried is that :
    Vcore 1.325 Everest reads 1.28 on load
    .... mine is 1.5 idle.
    I would like if you want, (and can ?) could you try encoding video ?
    Everest was running super stable for me (at even less) but when I was encoding video (TmgEnc Express) it was freezing my comp after a while.
    It was freezing after about 3h of straight encoding.
    but for anything else it's super

    I think I have Pinnicle studio somewhere otherwise I dont have anything I can encode with unless you count the movie maker that comes with windows.

    I've had World Community Grid BIONIC client running for 3 days on these settings now. 100% CPU utilization for over 50 hours now no crashes.

    Yeagh, kindof a thread jack to ask for the opinon on that in here, but i'm kind of at my end with this Q6600. Sure it's a great chip, but not a great combo on this board. I'm a gamer, and want to GAME. Since most games aren't even properly threaded to take advantage of 2 cores let alone 4, i think i'll go back to two until the next great SLI board comes along. Along those lines, I want the most bang for the buck. I got rid of all my older Core2Duo chips, so now i will have to take my chances with a new one.
