I agreed that 3.5 will be efficient enough but i have an urge to run at 3.7.haha.tamak.theres no secret.well there is a secret,before you buy from a seller.ask them first.Mostly this works with used OEM/retail proc biggrin.gif.as for new proc,i dont have any idea.tongue.gif Some people said,it depends on the batches.Anybody experience this?

1.45vcore is pretty ok for 24/7 provided load temp is not over 71 C

Now currently using 1.43 vcore with FSB 1600 x9
My proc VID is 1.284.... temp is average among 4 cores is around 45 degrees.... but I still havn't update my BIOS yet... Now still using the original BIOS.... Will updating to the newer BIOS improve stability and overclocking???
*
1.284 is pretty okay i guess compare to 1.3XX.i have the same temp like you too but i wonder why my core3 slightly lower by 5-7 C?

I also dunno... Mine is also similar.... Always the 3rd core lower than the others..... 1.43v to achieve 3.6GHz is ok for me... But I'll try to lower down the vcore once I updated my BIOS.... Received a tip recently that 3.6GHz is achievable around 1.3xx.... Will try once I updated my BIOS....
*
its archieveable?how to?mine is 3.6 at 1.4,but thats in bios,vdrop and in windows 1.384 idle,load 1.4v with loadline calibration enable.

I dunno... I will try to get an answer once I've experimented with my board and also update to a newer BIOS since OCing always need to update latest or if not, best BIOS..... I also wish to know the answer.....
Yeah.... That's very unfortunate..... Now I think the temperature is a bit high is bcos I dun hav enuf air intake for my case, which is why later I might go down to LYP to search for a nicer casing but dunno wanna buy it or not if I got the right one coz u know la bills are piling up very badly....  sweat.gif
*
ah,totally forgotten that youre using different mobo/with diff chipset.airflow of my casing is pretty bad too.sad.gif

Hehehe!!! Just changed it few days ago... A lot better than the 680i LT in OCing.... Now hunting for a casing.... I'm just hoping to see a price drop in GC later so that I can get my hands on my 2nd GTX 280 for SLi....

sifus and gurus,

is it possible to overclock the Q6600 G0 stepping from 2.66Ghz to 3.0Ghz using intel stock HSF?j

any recommendations on how to OC as i'm a newbie in this.....
*
its possible,but just make sure that at 3 ghz you might oc it at stock voltage.
