*Official Retail G0 Q6600 Overclocking Thread*

Thought I'd share my results with everyone. I got this motherboard and cpu from newegg earlier in the week

Q6600 - L743A944 (pack date 12/20/07)
DFI LP LT X38-T2R
Tuniq Tower

I'm currently running at 3600Mhz (1.37v) and all seems stable. Ran a load test last night and the system stayed up without problem. Load temps are hitting 69-73 (depending on core), but the system idles between 48-54 depending on the core. Anyone have any tips for me? I just recently upgraded from my trusty Athlon X2 4200 system I had for about 18months. This is my first Core based cpu system and I haven't mastered everything yet.

Also, Should I be worried about the 4-6 degree difference in the highest to lowest cpu temp readings?

Simalar temps to mine with an Ultra Extreme, same volts too, other then lapping the heatsink or CPU i'm not sure theres much else to do.

Thanks for the feedback all. Pretty satisfied with the core I have now.
