Correct. I'd flashed my BIOS last week. And I hoped I could overclock more. But 1.5 does not make any difference :( And actually, I got around 300 points LESS in 3DMark06 :S

Read my previous posts on the previous page. Also read the posts of Planatoid. With this board, we just can't have a stable overclock at 3.0Ghz. The only stable overclock I can find, is at 3.15Ghz. The settings are also given in my previous posts.

Today, I spend a few hours overclocking again :) I've found out that FSB from 1600 - 1649 is NOT bootable! FSB at 1650 is bootable again! I can even boot 1650 with a multiplyer of 9 and my Q6600 will run at 3.7Ghz :) But it is NOT stable :( With these settings (most stable), I can...

That's great fortress :) Good to hear that my findings can help you too :D The G0 is indeed much cooler than the B3 (read in a lot of forums). But my case is also very hot, because of my 2 8800Ultra's. These things are producing 70 celcius easily!!! I already got a 12CM fan exhaust...

THnx :) BTW, I've also contacted MSI support. They keep repeating this line: So they keep telling NOT to overclock... damn. Just develop a good BIOS!!! :( Anyway, my temps are indeed high when heavy loaded. I made a typo, on idle, my temps are around 50 Celcius (hottest core 51)...

Guys! I'm soooooooooooo happy!!! I've FINALLY found a stable overclock with my Q6600 B3. 100% for sure!!! See my previous posts, FSB 1333 just doesn't work for me. Multiplayer 8 also NOT. I got it running stable now with these settings: Q6600 B3 VID 1.2750 2.4Ghz @ 3.15Ghz...

yeah I've tried the timings to 4-4-4-12 2T with 1.8 Volt (it's max) No better results :( I'm sure it's not a driver BSOD. Because when NOT overclocked, my PC will run as long as I want to without BSOD's. Any other causes you can think of?

See my previous post. The settings I mentioned was the most stable one for me. It boots fine and Windows Vista 32bit runs fine. But I still get randomly BSOD's :( (sometimes after 5 minutes, sometimes after 5 hours, and etc.) I really tried almost every possible setting in my BIOS...

--------- edit (so if you're reading this. I did NOT find a stable configuration) ---------- Damn, still blue screens :( Guess I can't overclock with this board... --------------- Moederbord: MSI P6N Sli Platinum (BIOS version 1.4) CPU: Q6600 B3, VID: 1.2750 Overclock: 3.0Ghz -...

WHAT THE HELL!!! I'm beginning to get crazy with this board!! 3.2Ghz just don't work. I think I've tried every possible setting! It just won't boot! (black screen, no post, also not if I wait a few minutes and reset) 3.0Ghz (1333 x 9) works. But like I said before, it will give...

Thnx Platanoid, I'll try your settings when I get home after my work. About the Post thing, I got exactly the same problem when I go for 3.2Ghz!! (with the reboot and won't go further than post with the first boot). Pretty weird. I hope they'll fix this with a new BIOS update or...

If somebody has his Q6600 running stable on this motherboard at 3.0Ghz or more, please post your BIOS settings. Thnak you very much!

That didn't work. But I guess I found the solution. I had my NB set to 1.45 en VTT% on 4% I've changed it to: NB: 1.3 VTT%: 6% And it seems to boot fin now. Don't know why this works, but it works so far :) But I do get Blue Screens once in three hours or so...

I have a Q6600 with this board. The best I can do is overclock till 3Ghz. It runs pretty stable. But when I do that, my systems reboots it's self after "post" several times before it gets into Windows! When finally Windows loaded, everything works fine! Ran Prime95 stable for 3 hours...
