eh...tumpang thread...
cex...currently i usng gigabyte g31 mobo wif q6600 and 4gb value ram...can u guide me oc?cause i nvr oc b4..but i wanna try...thx

go bios and oc by chaging fsb n multiplier
actually i also no oc be4..

huh?
but i think is vry danger...
but i heard b4 got software can oc...any1 know tat?

There are always dangers in overclocking.... I suggest u read up in the OC section and on websites regarding this....

Software is not that good in OCing.... The best way is to go into the BIOS and tweak there.....

use software to oc? abit lousy lol..

why dun u learn to do it? because today's and incoming generation of processor, all will hav good ability to oc. if u nv learn now, then when

go to bios, raise the fsb / multiplier and make sure the ram speed match to the fsb (fsb:ram). let say, 800:800, then its 1:1. dun go other than 1:1. no point also performance might drop.

q6600 can go to 3ghz with stock volt ( written at vcore section)

so, gogo now!

Two methods....

Method #1: BSEL mod...



Picture is explanatory....


Method #2: Thru BIOS overclock settings....

1. Set system bus frequency to 333MHz. You may need to boost the FSB voltage a bit if not stable..

2. Set Memory Multiplier to 2x, your RAM frequency should be around 667MHz (safety). If you are adventurous, then try setting Multiplier to 2.5x, your memory frequency should be around 832MHz (slightly higher than rated frequency of DDR2-800, not sure if your RAM can handle or not... may need to increase RAM voltage a bit)

Make sure you run Memtest to test for RAM stability first...

Anyway, make sure you also have a good 3rd party cooler to keep the CPU heat down..

1st at all, need to know ur mobo capable.. *do some search on net, read some review.. then u will know..
2nd need to change ur hsf.. that one not good for oc, trust me on it.. i know.. *oc will generate more heat, so need good hsf..

I dont see any danger oc becos the most you wont boot n when you can boot the very important thing you look for is the temp n voltage, lower temp n dont overvolt your proc, having said that the proc will even shut down itself when overheat but not overvoltage.

OC software for CPU is extremely lousy. Like Asus` AI Suite

Seriously if u want to oc you better use the bios instead of software, becos bios stable n more accurate n can tweak around more than software

Yes, thats why I like to recommend ppl to oc with the bios
