Q6600 @ 3.2ghz...?
-
Hello. I'm new to this forum, a greeting first of all.
I have a q6600 at 2.4 default and recently I have bought an "asrock g41c-gs" and some Kigstone HiperX 2x2 ddr3 1333. (The motherboard is compatible with ddr2 and ddr3). Until recently I had ddr2 667 memory installed.
Well, my "aim" is to take it now that I have better components to 3.2ghz and here is the problem because I do not know what to do with the VTT, NBridge, DRAM, GTLref V.I attach the current values and as you can see, at the moment the CPU is fine (by basic tutorial) and stable at 3ghz but there is my great interest in taking it to 3.2 which, as I said lines back, is where I aim.
As this processor is very "overclocked", I imagine there will be parameters that I can adjust but without danger. On youtube everyone has different bios and they control the Vcore just like that. On google I do not see a similar case that clears my doubts and that is why I come here, looking for the best help.Sorry to the administrator or other users if this topic is already clarified in another thread, but unfortunately, I am stuck on this page and "I do not understand the mass..."
Regards and I hope for a response. And more cfg data necessary in case it is required to consider more options.
Thanks

The first thing you have to do is set the memory to 1066 or even to 800.
Can you increase the CPU multiplier? If not, you would have to gradually increase the CPU frequency. Try first at 340 to see if it is stable.

Hello Emerito. Thanks for replying.
According to what you tell me, I come from Bios and I confirm that this "x9" and at 340 if it is stable but the CPU-ID catches it as 3050mhz (It came from 333,4).
The thing is, I can't "lock" the memories at 800 or another frequency, because as soon as I raise the FSB the RAM frequencies go as "linked" and go up alone. In that case, I thought about raising the voltages but as you see, I have no idea what to do.
I trust that you continue here and help me with this issue if possible. 3.2 on q6600 is not "nothing of the other world"Thanks!!!

…. Everything can be adjusted but the memories "go away" as I increase the FSB. I read that in this motherboard you can't touch the Vcore like in so many others, and that you can do it by software with a program that is downloaded from the same CPU-ID website but it turns out that when I install it, "it doesn't load the driver" once I want to launch it. Not even kidding!!
When everything was going wrong.... xD

For those who have been there reading, I now "think" I have something of interest. Tomorrow I will open the tower and I will tell you if there was progress or not. In Latin it is said, Errare humanum est, so in that case…xD
-
Any jumper on the motherboard?
Even if the memories go up, if you set them to 800 you should have enough margin.
-
Exactly, Emerito. Hello first of all.
It's just as you say and they would be synchronized with the processor frequency. But from 340 in FSB the PC does not physically start up and starts up on the second in error mode with stable or default values. And I don't think the memories would complain about going to 3.1 or 3.2 Ghz.
So, I imagine, that it would come to touch topics of voltages and there I don't know what to do as I have them set in my Bios or the photo attached in my first message of this thread.
In other Bios, there is an almost universal value for 3.2 when the configurations are similar.The Jumper is the typical one apparently, more or less like this: [...] = 2-3 (1-2 initial) xD
What do you say?

Ask for data and I'll give you both, thank you.

This already leaves me without motivation. I can't touch the vcore on this motherboard and it would be the solution to keep the processor at 3.2ghz. Now it's like in the first attached photo in terms of value to 3ghz stable and it should be raised to 1.3Xv. I'm under win7 x64 and I can't install systool, since it doesn't work in this case to be able to ignore the Digital Signed messages and make a correct installation. Everything that is "disable this or that" doesn't work here. I also doubt that it will go to 32bits to be able to do an OC on a socket that is already dead, 775. Also, I read that raising this micro to more than 3.4 is almost imperceptible in games with modern engines, that it's the same at 3.4 that 3.6 or higher, and even, it worsens the performance despite the logic that "it has to go better". So I'm at 3ghz. There are hardly any motherboards left to mount a q6600 and mine with its Bios is not very "tweakable". The pc goes fast in terms of my needs as a user and I have the g94 chip for the VGA. As it is now and maybe, a small jump to a superior or more modern VGA chipset, it would be "almost" perfect.

You have to touch the vcore in the bios, it's not recommended to do OC from those Windows programs, if they were new motherboards with UEFI then you could touch many more values, but in that socket the OC should be done in the bios.
Anyway that motherboard isn't going to allow you good OC for that CPU, unless it lets you block the integrated graphics, I don't know who will say that raising that CPU is imperceptible but it will influence the graphics you have and also the game, in a Q6600 of mine it's not so imperceptible to put it at 3600, games like GTA4 are noticeable in the minimums and in stability, but it will depend on the game, some games don't ask for much CPU and others do and in the latter a faster processor goes better, although many things influence the resolution and graphics, in addition to the CPU.
That's right, from 3200 to 3400 there is little difference, it will be noticed a little more in some games but it will never be an important difference.
