| Re: Q6600 OCing You're right, this is ask 10 times this week. Take 2 hrs, read all the threads, then ask speccific questions IF you need it. Your board and setup is identical to about half the threads, so its all there.. But, I would not OC your system past 3.0Ghz...... You'll burn it.

| Re: Q6600 OCing he should be able to go past 3.0 with little to no probs... even though all cpus clock differently, with a good cooler should be able to do 3.2 or 3.4 with no problems. i can run mine at 3.8 with no problems all day but I also have water cooling. Im not familiar with ure board though
