[18th Anniversary] Asus Black Pearl - P5k-Premium Testing Report

[sesdave]

Hi friends,

I recently assembled a new system. Here is my configuration:

Asus P5K Premium, bios 0504
Q6600 @ 2.4.0Ghz (stock)
2 x 1 GB OCZ2N1066SR2GK @ 1067 Mhz
EVGA 8800GTX 768 MB
FSB Epsilon 600 Watts PSU

I was wondering if i could increase my CPU to 3 or 3.2 GHz and my FSBRAM ratio to 1:1 safely without degrading my memory speed.

Please help me, as I am pretty new to this field.

Thank you,
Rajeeb

Shouldnt be a problem . What cooling are u using by the way? Before we start download PCwizard to monitor temps if you arent using anything http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php Its gives a neat display top right screen when you minimise..Try a 4:5 ratio rather than 1:1 for alittle more bandwidth.. You may need to increase vcore slightly if its not stable on stock. Try these settings - if okay and stable we can fine tune memory and maybe reduce some volts in the vcore/NB/FSB later. Should be able to get the sticks running 4.,4,4,12 or better at that speed..
