ok guys dont mean to sound dumb here, but im still learning.. i hear people talking about LLC and GTL. what are they and how and why do i use them or not use them? shoot me a PM if you dont want to clutter up the thread that is fine... i just cant seem to get my Q9550 any higher than 3.6-3.7ghz stable. the only thing i have adjusted is vcore(cpu) mch(which is NB right) Mem volts. and mem strap.i have that set at 2.00d. now i do have the EP45-DS3R. not a UD3P/R
i did just get some ddr2 1066 mem(corsair dominators).... or is this board just at its max with the fsb as high as it is to get a higher OC????
