I tried to overclock my E6600 as below:

-9x400FSB
-ddr2 800 4-4-4-10

-Mch Voltage +0.2V
-FSB Voltage +0.2V
-VDIMM +0.5V (I am using Micon DG9)

-CPU Voltage at 1.45V

My mobo is Gigabyte 965 S3 with DS3 BIOS F9

I can get the above spec running perfectly in WinXP, I even using Everest tools to check all the system setting without any error.
The question here is my CPU temp on Core 1 and 2 rise up to 73 celcius!!! I am using stock heatsink.... I dare not run other benchmark since the temp is high!!!

May i know what is the Over'clock temp on E6600 on FSB 400? Whick heaksink come best to reduce the temp? Ninja or thermaltake Big Typhoon better? Thanks

big typhoon vx results is proven best in air cooling thread
im considering tat cooler also...wanna get rid my hyper 48 1st

how can u determine "running perfectly in WinXP"? is it u can boot into windows then is counted as "perfectly"? a perfect oc machine should be stressed 100% over 8-12 Hours without any errors and also with acceptable temp range.

73c is ur idle temp? then this is terrible man. try to lower ur vcore but the first aid is changing another 3rd party hsf. pls do tell us ur budget for hsf so that we can try to recommend u the best hsf with ur budget

have u try running some other applications such orthos??

ps : better get 3rd party cooling to cool lower down ur current temp

no. if i'm not mistaken, only Oklahama Wolf in Oc Forums said Zues 560 and 650 is Enhance while most of the ppl cerified it is Etasis. i'm not sure myself. but most saying zues = etasis. 750/850 definately Etasis. as you can see 560 and 650 is kinda different. one single rail one quad rail. btw, if i'm not mistaken, 650 suffer from heat issue according to vr-zone.

Dang manyak berani bro u..
I saw all ppl o'c their E6600 with 1.2v vCore.. only abang gengstapo o'c with 1.44v

which bios ma? i heard F8 can OC with lowest possible voltage? is that true?

all sifu here can teach me overclock ah??i duno my way is correct but i attached a print screen,pls comment and help me TQ

As i said, The Core 1 and 2 temp rise up to 73++, meanwhile the Overall CPU temp at 56++... I only dare to run this temp for a while (approx 30 minutes), using Everest to test the setting etc... I dare not use other benchmarking tools to burn in my CPU...

I plan to get a Sycthe Infinity/Ninja or maybe a Noctua... May i know which one is the best?

not much can be comment except nice clock speed u got there, but temp kinda high

its always been better if u can list down ur hardware here. who know maybe there was a person who can give u better advise/ ideas

my spec :

Proc:C2D E6700 4MB cache
Ram:1GB DDR533 Normal one
Board:Asus Striker Extreme
using water cooling now.i think the result suppose better than this...

owhh, no wonder la easily reach 3.7Ghz++ when u on e67
i believe vcore also need to be pumped right? coz my e66 oso need alot vcore to get higher speed

btw, what psu u using?

im using cooler master real power 550w,anyway may i know what's the Vcore u use for the max speed

hehee.. my daily setup only at 3.25Ghz@ 1.36v

its kinda fast enuff i believe

Try to change ur hsf faster. then temp is too high. which one is the best? if ur budget around RM170 = TT BTVX, RM200 = Infinity,Ultra120,Noctua perhaps.

Try to google around

OMG... a noob having a striker...?
y can't i have 1...

Happy wif my DS4 already... hehe... Anyway... u got benchies on tat...?

Many say AMD not going to do quad core but dual CPU instead... Anyway... 2 AMD X2 5200+ is still cheaper than 1 C2E QX6700...

But performance dunno la...

don simply said ppl noob ,those who really damn good in overclock in lowyat still keep quiet u wan said ppl noob.

at least i have a striker and u don have it.

U have nice mobo and proc.. maybe u should upgrade PSU and RAM too when have $$
