grahamdunstan Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 hi there i have been trying to get my q6600 over 3.0Ghz but cant seem to even get the bios to load i have tryed loads of diffrent settings iam using the striker extreme mobo and using 4GB Corsair dominator 1066 i have not even trying to OC the ram yet until i can get my cpu to 3.4 thanks AI Tuning: Manual Nvidia GPU Ex: Disabled LinkBoost: Disabled FSB - Memory Clock Mode: Unlinked x FSB - Memory Raio: N/A FSB (QDR), Mhz: 1380 MEM (DDR), Mhz: 800 Vcore Voltage: from 1.3750 upto 1.4650 Memory Voltage: auto 1.2v HT Voltage: 1.4 NB Core Voltage: 1.65 SB Core Voltage:auto CPU VTT Voltage: 1.55 DDRII Controller Ref Voltage: DDRII Channel A Ref Voltage: DDRII Channel B Ref Voltage: tCL (CAS Latency): auto tRCD: auto tRP: auto tRAS: auto Command Per Clock (CMD): 2 clock (2T) Advance Memory Settings tRRD: AUTO tRC: AUTO tWR: AUTO tWTR: AUTO tREF: AUTO tRD: AUTO tRFC: AUTO Async Latency: AUTO CPU Spread Spectrum: Disabled PCIE Spread Spectrum: Disabled MCP PCIE Spread Spectrum: Disabled SATA Spread Spectrum: Disabled LDT Spread Spectrum: Disabled CPU Internal Thermal Control: Disabled Limit CPUID MaxVal: Disabled Enhanced C1 (C1E): Disabled Execute Disable Bit: Disabled Virtualization Technology: Disabled Enhanced Intel Speedstep Tech: Disabled LDT Frequency: 5x PCIEX16_1 Frequency (Mhz): 100 PCIEX16_2 Frequency (Mhz): 100 PCIEX16_3 Frequency (Mhz): 100 SPP<->MCP Ref Clock, Mhz: 200 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamdunstan Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 ok i have been able to get it up to 3.5Ghz but now iam really stuck there my volts are FSB (QDR), Mhz: 1559 Vcore Voltage: from 1.4 Memory Voltage: 2.1 1.2v HT Voltage: 1.3 NB Core Voltage: 1.50 SB Core Voltage:1.55 CPU VTT Voltage: 1.55 i have bee trying to get the QDR to 1600 to give me an even 50% overclock but every time it just will not boot i have tried upping the volts but still no joy Please can you help Me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamdunstan Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) please can someone help me Iam now stable @ 3.5 vcore - 1.4250 mem -2.2 1.2 ht - 1.5 NB - 1.55 SB - 1.55 Cpu vtt - 1.55 qdr 1558 ddr 800mhz @ 4-4-4-12 - corsair dominotor 4GB every time i try 3.6 it will not boot at all then when i reset it it says the has been a hardware fault and to press f1 to contuine or del to enter setup. if i p[ress f1 it boots and normal speed of 2.4.

PLEASE HELP sounds to me like it's hungry for volts man. you sure you can't up the vcore any more? thats weird that asus would put that small of a vcore limit thats probably what it is to go higher you'll need some more voltage and the board won't give it to ya.

grahamdunstan Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 yeah the mobo will let me put it up to 1.9v but i have had it upto 1.5v but still the same thing happens and dose not boot ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
capthowdy575 Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 try 1.55 or a little higher but be warned your putting alot of volts to that chip for that kind of overclock what air cooler are you using also what are your temps for your current clock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattwalter85 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 put it at 1.65vcore and see how high you can take it on that...road-runner has had one of his at 4.1Ghz so i kno it can def. go higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamdunstan Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 is 1.65 not pushing it to much ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattwalter85 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 lol..i plan on taking my E8400 to 1.6 and its a 45nm chip so no i dont think so. i had my E6850 at 1.7 and it was fine. just watch the temps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 is 1.65 not pushing it to much ? Yea, you are correct here! 1.65 was high for 24/7 usage on 90nm already, so on 65nm it's not advisable! Matt, whatever you do to your processors is NOT a benchmark for everyone! 1.7 volts into a 65nm chips is DEFINITELY too much! 45nm at 1.6 is also too much, you're very much risking a nice CPU burn there! Road-Runner was using a custom watercooling kit, so he could go a little higher. Graham, I would recommend no higher than 1.55V for 24/7 usage, lower if possible. I ran my Q6600 @ 3.5GHz 24/7 with 1.424V, the E6400 before that was at 3.2GHz with 1.408V's. There is a difference between running it at very high volts for a short benching session and running it 24/7! For example, back in the day I ran a A64 4000+ @ 3305MHz for a suicide screenshot, pushing 1.7V's into it, but I was HELLA scared! That was a 90nm chip though, so that was SORT OF acceptable, 65nm chips at 1.7V's on air is unacceptable in my book! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
