i have to know about the vid of the cpu is it good or bad to have lower.
and if there is way to know wich cpu better for oc?
i have vid-1.2875v q6600 and i cant go up to 4ghz(now i'm with 3900 1.6v 40c ide 74c load)

Sounds like you've peaked with load temps like that. Most Q6600s I've seen don't go past 4GHz with your typical water cooling. I can get close to 4.1 but just idling. It's not stable.
