FSB termination voltage or vfsb

Aside from vcore u need to adjust the vfsb, vnb and vdimm too bro. So u need to experiment on each of them.

What's ur other voltage values ?

my vdimm is 2.3... vnb i put auto, vfsb oso auto... sry but im still a noob in oc'ing wwwww

my fsb termination voltage has a range of 1.20 to 1.50 volts... so is it ok for me to just put it to the max? or is the a fine balance?

iBenQ,

for Q6600, newbies put 1.4v FSB VTT for 3.6GHZ OC .... for the expert, they can put 1.2v FSB VTT after adjusting the GTLREF

but if you wanna go 4Ghz without adjusting the GTLREF, put 1.5v for FSB VTT for better stability...

what is your VID ?

my vid is 1.3, im using the g0 stepping... 3.6ghz @ 1.4v stable but failed prime95 stress test @@... for 4ghz, i put 1.69 oso not stable at all T_T

the cpu voltage ref n nb voltage ref got few values like 0.67x, 0.63x, 0.57x n so on... what do those values mean ehh???

for 65nm procs, use 0.67x.

i see.... sry for being noob >"<... but why i still cant push to 4ghz? T_T... izzit bcos my temp too high??? since im using stock hsf idle @ 4ghz in bios info is 70c @@

i am using Q6600 too

lots of factor bro.. heat, voltage, timings etc can cause instability so u need to test them one by one and do a stress test once u change anything.

i did stress test my cpu... so far the most stable settings for me is 3.2ghz @ 400fsb x8 @ 1.28v... any higher it will not be stable anymore T_T

try use x9 400 and up vcore up to 1.45v monitor the temps

after that try to increase the ram slowly, try loosening the timings as you increase the clock.

hmmm at 1.45v cpu still not stable @ 3.6ghz... after 3-4 minutes on prime95, get bluescreen n restart... on stock hsf, 3.6 @1.45v core temp is around 60c, and cpu temp is 50+ idle @@

probably not stable coz temp too high at load. u're using stock heatsink. suspect auto throttling or just shut off coz temp too high. thts y ur OC not stable.

i see... hopefully when i get my new heatsink can get stable oc @@

My settings - 3.6ghz @ 1.4875v bios set

y q6600??other quad core out of budget??

This is q6600 thread, of course la we talk about q6600

hmmm... my gtl ref for cpu oni got 0.63x, 0.61x but no 0.67x @@ so which should i choose? but my nb gtlref got 0.67x @@

If u use stock HSF, better u just stick to 3.2GHz 1st..... If u r not really expert in OC, better leave GTLVREF settings to auto..... Others can manually adjust.... Until u get a better HSF, then u can push to 3.6GHz with no prob....

check ur temp bro, 1.3 vid should get 3.6ghz around 1.42v only...... but that is voltage read by monitoring software. Keep in mind that different mobo have different capability

i think 2.3vdim is too much, if u running at DDR800, usuall 1.9v or less will do already

is this ok q6600 3.5ghz vcore 1.50 ??? temp 40degress.... is the vcore normal to intel spec.???
