I have just followed this link http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?board_id=1&model=P6T+Deluxe&id=20081220191040237&page=1&SLanguage=en-us for overclocking core i7 to 3.6 GHZ and i got the same result i got from Gigabyte Smart Utility except with lower CPU voltage 1.168 and memory is set to 1500 MHZ (Memory Multiplier 10 x 150 Bclk)=1500 MHZ i may overclock RAM it later any way Prime95 was running for 2 hours without any errors and temp never exceeed 62 C

 

Overclocking results:
