You mean the newer version of bios gives bad performance in overclocking A.K.A. gives lower room for overclocking?

batch #L629F125 E6600 from liltro

ha mula la nk rendah diri tuh.. 
aku bengkok kan heatsink tu kang baru tau 

nice board anyway..
OT - so how high the sempron can be overclocked with those hynix? 

wanna get TT ToughPower 2Kw PSu to pair with ur monster rig?? or Corsair DDR3 for ur P35 DQ
Think ur 2900XT can be last for sometime... since there is nothing higer end for u to upgrade

@irenic
do you remove those heatpipe+heatsink to reapply thermal paste? or it's not necessary to do so?

irenic, good to see theres more fellow QX6X00 users around.

letme know the result of ur OC man, very interested. so far my orthos has been unsuccessful on clocks beyond 3ghz... im currently settling with 3ghz (340x9) and manage to orthos for 12 hours...

even then, the core temps of all 4 cores are on ~110-120 celcius avg... the moment turn off orthos the temp instantly drop to ~80ish, like really instantly lol

if i go higher fsb/clock speeds, it'll shoot up 120-130celcius and eventually around 30mins-1hour++ it'll auto shutdown, prolly to prevent it from frying out.

Will Noctua NH-U12F do?
Actually already ordered the Tuniq 120.
The problem is, all those performance Aircooling HSF is damn tall...Tuniq 155mm, same goes for the NH-U12F...my praetorian 732 has very slim chance of fitting them without having problem of closing the side panel. I'm taking the chance here of buying the Tuniq...
Any recommendation   - on aircooling...WC? I'm the President of Orang Malas Club

Yup. But having hard time playing with both the DFI Dark and this Q6600.
I dunno which one giving me trouble 2.9G on stock (1.285v) is ok but higher than that even 3G seems to be 'impossible' no matter with what voltage...sux to the bone man...
