Striker Extreme settings for Q6600 G0 overclock

[Mullet]

HI All,

Recently installed a G0 Q6600. Am wondering if anyone can recommend me some decent settings for OC'ing my system. What bios settings and bios revision would you recommend?

Cheers

[Mmmm~]

use the search button, theres a really good thread about the striker with a q6600

I just got my Striker Extreme last weekend and am still benching with my Q6600. Have a look at this thread http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=159457

You want the 1303 bios, do not, I repeat, do NOT use the 1305 bios. I'm priming stable at the moment at 3.6. I did boot into windows at 4.0g but soon as I tired P95 it crashed.

HUGE thanks to GameGuru,

Applied the bios settings he recommended and used bios 1301.

System is fine at 3.6GHz now.

Hi !
i am new and any help is welcome.

this is my rig :
Q6600 G0 air cooler| Asus Striker Extreme (1301 bios) | Crucial Ballistix Tracer 8500 4x1GB (DDR-1066) |1 x Asus 8800GTX | Raid 0 with 4 x 250 seagate hdd | PSU: NEO HE 550W

my rig is similar to GameGuru (cpu,ram ,mobo),so if u can shre your settins will be great.pls help with this :

and one question : neo he 550w is ok or i need more power for my cpu @ 3,4Ghz ?


sorry my english.

These are Linflas settings mate, worked good for me till up to 425FSB, keep ram in sync with FSB do not try to force more ram mhz as it will make the OC unstable... I hope it works out for you as some boards just don't cut it... plz make sure the heatpipes get enough cooling as running them without added cooling will surely hinder ya OC

On the Antec PSU I cannot comment as I never use them in a high specced system, I'm a trusty follower of Enermax and OCZ...

hi ! and tks for atention.
i tried your settings and dont boot.At x8 boot only in 1500 FSB ,and i changed at x9 and after many ,many restrats (very hard this striker ) i find this settings:
@3,15 , 30 grade CPU idlle

is ok FSB/mem ?

[Leeghoofd]

you on 1301 or 1303 Bios mate ? Well each board behaves differently did it boot with only 2 dimms in it ? what was the error on the lcd ?

[beginer1]

bios is 1301,i boot only with 4 dimms and i dont have a error becouse dont boot (black screen)
and now i changed "MEM (DDR), Mhz: 900" in 850 becouse i recevie bluescreen after 30 min with prime95.

[Leeghoofd]

there should be an error on the LCD poster at ya backplate: cpu init, det ram, det ide,...

and also a black screen no boot means you are in an FSB hole, meanign you have to up the FSB eg 12mhz and try again...

try eg 1660 FSB ( 415FSB) with 830mhz on the ram always try to keep these in line with a quad, if you are gonna force them you migth get instabilities... if it doesn't boot try 1672 and 833 on the ram till it boots...

[beginer1]

ok,tks mate,i will try .
