I'm not entirely familiar with OCing of q6600's, but shouldn't the temps be no more than 60C? He has a Zalman for god sakes! He should be hitting 3ghz EASY, and then some.

Edit: I researched around, and I THINK that q6600's top out at 70C. If I were overclocking, I wouldn't go over 65-66 or 67ish. But I dunno. Hopefully someone can clear this up.

Caliman, I used the guide that Lazer Viking linked on another post "oc q6600" HOWTO: Overclock C2D Quads and C2D Duals - A Guide v1.0 - [H]ard|Forum and it helped me a lot. I would suggest giving it a complete read. I hope it helps.

Seconded. I bookmarked that guide. It's VERY in-depth, and really helps you understand what you're doing when you're overclocking.
