i have a ds3 gig board with an e6600. also have ocaz gold 800mhz ram (4 gb's)

i want to over clock everything and in everest ultimate it says


cpu clock 1600.0mhz
cpu multiplier 6.0
cpu fsb 266.7 mhz
mem bus 400mhz
dram:fsm ratio 12:8

i have a 500W power supple iwht a crap vid card and a zelmen 9700 fan. what is the best combo to oc. From what i understand i can turn the cpu way up and leave ram or overclock spu not as much..but bump ram too. not sure which way to go and how to do it. I know to where in bios..just not sure which to change. Can anyone help me out??

thanks
 
ok now my ram is 800mhz..and my fsb on board is 1066...can i overclock my memory that high...or should i try for only 900mhz?
 
why does my multiplier keeps changing from6 to 9 and back...1600 to 2400 ghz.

its a intel e6600?? in bios it says 9 in bios

whats goign on?
 
You can only over clock the Frequency to that amount if its slowed down a whole lot in the timings then it makes it not as useful from what I have read and seen so far. my memory is 800mhz ram and I have it running 910mhz at 5-4-5-12 timings with 2.1 volts been stable on all test and game play running crysis. My mother board allows you to not link the memory which makes it way easier to overclock. if you are unable to do that you will have to play with the memory timings a bit. Which you will be slowing them down. To overclock your cpu more stable. Every memory is different usually cheap memory is worst to overclock. I use Mushkin ddr2 6400 800. Correct me if I am wrong someone no offense will be taken.

Jack up the multiplier... and raise clock... but give that a thorough read first.
His processor is locked, meaning he can't raise the multiplier.

It changes from 6 to 9 and vice versa because it throttles back when your computer doesn't need as much processing power, to save electricity and more importantly keep the voltage and temps of the processor lower.
 
well i got everything working. Left the ram close to the 800mhz speed but put the processor to 9X310 (2.8ghz) and went to bed for the night. I turned the comp on today after work and its back to 2.4. Whats goin on here??
