I am hoping someone can finally put me out of my misery. I had a Q6600 G0 given to me and I thought its worth having because of what I have seen as its overclocking qualities. Well I have tried everything and the best I get is 3.0ghz or if I use the 30% clock profile in the BIOS I can get up to 3.11.

I would be really grateful if anyone could give me some settings to try as I have been up and down the various changes and everytime I run orime it falls over on thread 4 within seconds.

I have an arctic freezer pro 7 and at 3.00 idle CPU temps are around 35.

Running Vista 64-bit with 4gb of 6400C5DHX RAM (timings at 5-5-5-18)

BIOS version 27.04

Like I said, if I am told thats as good as it gets, so be it, wait for a new motherboard

Thanks

Paul
