The 4.00C memory strap(latch) / divider were never that friendly to me. Try 2.00 or 2.66, specifically 2.00B as a starting point.

 

Change voltages to the following;

 

Northbridge 1.36v

VTT 1.38v

PLL 1.70v

vDimm 1.60v

CPU 1.425v

 

If I didn't mention it above (voltages) then leave it set at auto.

 

Make those changes and see how it works out.

what wev said... also have you read any 775 guides?? I know that your setup can EASILY hit 4.0ghz (or it better) as my old Q9450 could on air. Push higher but only after reading enough to understand what you are changing!

Great point about reading guides IVY.

 

There are plenty of great Socket 775 O/C guides available through a simple Google Search. And I'll bet you'll even find some with that exact same processor ;)
