OC q6600 G0 9x333

[taintedplay]

If i overclocked my g0 q6600 from 9x267 (stock) to 9x333 making it 3.0ghz, would i have to up the voltages or anything at all else? Also, would ntune be the best way to oc my 8800gts? on my q6600 i have a af7 btw with these results from speedfan:

for checking temps, use coretemp since speed fan is known to be inaccurate.
And you shouldnt need to raise any volt to get to 3.0, but rune a prime95 stress test for about 8-12 hours anyways to make sure that its stable.

I would use CoreTemp for reading temperatures...as for clocking to 333fsb, most, if not all g0 quads do it on stock vcore...

All depends on the CPU. Some g0's overclock better than others. I was able to run as high as 3150 on stock voltage.

i never even checked

Bought it brand new, popped it in and cranked it up to 3.6ghz 1.375 vcore...thats the lowest it's ever run

mine runs stable at 1.3 v with 3.2speed, which is still good. Temps never touched 60s on load and idles in low 30s.

Ya, thats more or less what i did, but i still wanted to see how far it would go without touching the voltage.

hmm core temp says im in the 49-51 area. I jsut finished gaming ten minuites ago so that could be it, but i just put on my new af7 this morning. I took the old paste off with rubbing alchohol.

is ntune the best app to oc gfx cards? (getting a 8800gt in a week)

Rivatuner is quite good
