Official Gigabyte X48/X48T-DQ6 bios+info thread

[jaggerwild]

a Q6600 is difficult to get to 4.0 ghz and also be P95 stable...the highest i could get my Q6600 was to about 3.980 Ghz...BUT...that was NOT P95 stable.

Again, Thank you Ace
Thats about where I got it too, so I'm happy for now till I get a better CPU. I have a Q9300 but it seems to be a big dog? Any help/suggestion on it besides throwing it out the window? It would not clock up past 3.5 if I recall correctly, again if anybody has any suggestions on this CPU feel free to jump right in.

Also another question, having trouble with clocking both GPU'S in rivatuner. It shows the second one under clocking and when I try to adjust the setting for it in the drop down, after testing them it goes right back to defaults(witch shows as under clocked from the primary GPU)? So I know I'm missing something there, maybe not enough voltage? Gonna get a bigger better PSU after my next pay period. Maybe a tweak in RIVA I'm missing here?

OK guys have my system built and am not having any luck getting it overclocked. It is actually saying it is running at 1.60ghz on the Q6600. I hate to be a pain in the ass but I need to know step by step process getting her overclocked. It is my first build from the ground up and need help with the rest.
I want to get her to 3.00ghz and leave it that way for awhile. I have seen that is not to hard to archive and have a cooler just need some help from you guys.


Please Please!!!

Hello Knight,

Are you OK inside the BIOS, changing settings?
I would suggest upping the FSB multi then adjust the mem multi to keep it close to stock (at first) then do this in small increments till it will not boot then start adding voltage to the CPU first then, the PCIE, ONLY ADJUST one thing at a time to see the results of the adjustment.
MY 3.6 over clock settings/FSB OVC+0.20/FSB OVC+0.10/(G)MCH OVC+0.150/
CPU voltage 1.462/line load cali. on/MEM you will need to mess with your self to find the voltages that are good. As each is different...........

Always watch your temps when upping the CPU voltage!!! Any voltage for that matter (use Everest Ultimate@majorgeeks.com)
Post back let me know what you find............
Any questions ask first if you don't know!!!
