Q6600 OC Issues

So I am new to OC and atm and I had some thoughts and issues.

Q6600 @ 1.325v and VID is 1.325

issue I have is with a 1:1 = 667 ram is 800mhz to my ram so I had a thought.

The voltage was set at 1.280 on auto @ 2.4ghz and I was getting a core error on #3 after 2-3 passes @ 333x9 so I increased from 1.3v to 1.325 and so far it looks good. Currently on pass 7 of prime95 still stressing.

I did memtest and 4 passes = no errors. Ram is @ 1.8v 5-5-5-15 (factory)


If I set it at 400x8 = 1:1 ratio and 3.2ghz would that work and whats the typical voltage? 1.325v = can't even load vista @ 400x8. I don't want to fry my CPU would be bad ^-^

I rather fear going over the VID without knowing what I am looking at.

ATM temps in a 21-22c room is 47-46-43-45 after 28 mins or so of prime95 using a Xigmatek S1283 cooler (AS5 5 hours used) fan max speeds of 1000RPM but could easily go to 1500RPM.


So here is a screenshot btw...30 mins or so in to prime95

Hey mate i think i have the same problem and im scared as you were, please help me the no bios or nothing pops up.
 
Well I don't think thats my problem mate...my PC is stable...I just didn't want to over volt my CPU.

If your getting no bios boot or anything you might have damaged your system. You might want to make a new thread so others see it and can help you. I have no idea...I am a intermediate user to overclocking.
