think ill post my overclock with my q6600. had it for a while just upgraded to ep45-ud3p and the results are good.
doing 3.7 gig at 1.45v cant seems to get any higher though which is a shame.

have to check when i get home.. i c ur load temp is way lower than mine though monsh i hit 71 max when im doing prime occt etc etc. but im on air

Here's my settings its pretty standard.... just succesfully lower the voltage to 1.43v but doesnt make a difference in temperature at all lol

its gives u more stability in some cases for further overclocking. like x-1o8-x says it gives it more time to deal with the instructions. but the performance wont be impact by it at all in real world since u gain faster clock speed.

can read more bout it here.

keep in mind dont put the value too high and it only works in some cases sometimes it doesnt seems to do anything at all though.

no money to buy i7 mah stick with q6600 lo
