dear OC-ers,

i am newbie to the OC scene but would like to learn; i recently purchased the following:

Q6600 (2.4GHz)
Gigabyte P35-DS3
2GB Kingston Hyper-X 4-4-4-12
MiniTypo 90 Cooler
PowerLogic 500W PSU

So far i was only able to OC to 2.7GHz (300x9) and the voltage i set it to system (mobo controlled); with this speed, my cpu temp during normal use is about 31/32 degrees. And when running OCCT stress test, it goes up to max of 58degrees; is this acceptable?

I tried to OC to 3GHz (333x9) but failed to boot into XP; i get a blue screen.

Can anyone tell if i can OC to 3.2GHz with the hardware above for daily use?

thanks.
