HI what do you think about this.

i heard you can over clock to 3.7GHz from a 2.4GHz proseser
in M.I.T. settings ......mine are

Robust Graphics Booster. AUTO
CPU Clock Ratio. 8x
CPU HostClock Control. ENABELED
CPU Host Frequency MHz. 400
PCI Express Frequency. AUTO
C.I.A.2. DISABLED
System Memory Multiplyer (SPD). x2 (that = 800 MHz)
DRAM Timing. AUTO
And Voltage on all is increced by .1 volt and CPU is 1.350 (norm is 1.280 v)

and now i will tel you about my set up
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS31 Mother Board with (Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz
CPU is cooled by conair H100 water cool good temp when clocked to 3.2
Ram is DDR2 800MHz (4X2GB=8GB) with Conair Ram Cooler
Gigabyte GTX 550 Ti Video Card

Possible but unlikely with any stability. Limit of an E/Q6600 is about 3.6 GHz.

 

Excellent guide:

It's for an EP35-DS3L but all the Gigabyte Core2 BIOS's are similar.

 

Keep ypur CPU core voltage under 1.50 volts and load temps under 70 C.
