    Overclocking 2500k on an ASUS P8P67-LE board

    I just ran LinPack for 10 runs. I overclocked my 2500k to 4.2 Ghz. Anyone knows why my Gflops are so inconsistent? :(

    Overclocking 2500k on an ASUS P8P67-LE board

    I am able to overclock to 4.4Ghz and run Prime95 for about 8 hrs without any errors. However, the processor speed jumps periodically jumps from 1.6 Ghz-- 3+ Ghz to 4.4 Ghz when Prime95 is run. Are my voltages too low? Any one has any experience overclocking the LE board? There doesn't seem to...

    Gigabyte P965-P35 X38 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide

    A short update to my OC. Was able to get a stable 3.0 Ghz OC running. However, my temperatures when I was doing the Intel Burn test was 80 degrees. Is that too hot? Should I maybe lower my OC? (I already tried loweing the CPU voltage, but it would BSOD when running the intel burn test).

    Nope. Touched the RAMS and NB heatsinks with my thermal probe. Only felt warm even after 15 seconds. Prime95 has been running for 3 hrs now. No errors so far. Temp is averaging 67 degrees celcius.

    Ok... the above settings just caused WIndows 7 to BSOD (my first BSOD in windows 7. Yay!) What else should I change? P.S. most of the settings were using BillParish's guide on page 1.

    Gigabyte P965-P35 X38 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide

    Hi everyone, I have another question. I am using Prime95 to stress test my CPU. There are 3 tests in the program. Which one should I be using? Disregard the above question. Already found out the answer. :) A little bit more detail on my CPU. It's one with B3 stepping. I am currently running...

    Gigabyte P965-P35 X38 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide

    I just ordered a cheap 40mm fan. Where should I stick the fan (if I can). There are no "vents/fins" visible from the top. Have a look at the picture here (http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2639) There are some vents on the side though. Should...

    Gigabyte P965-P35 X38 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide

    Not sure if there's even space to stick a 40mm fan. With the zalmann cooler my friend installed, it's going to be a pretty tight fit. Anyway, here's a noob question. What is a conservative overclocking for the Q6600 and whats an extreme one?

    Gigabyte P965-P35 X38 overclocking and BIOS tweaking Guide

    HI all, Was surfing the net for some beginners guide for overclocking my Q660 and came upon this site. I bought a PC from a friend. It uses an old(?) Gigabyte P35-DS3P (rev 1.0). Anyone has any experience with overclocking the Q660 with this motherboard? The heatsink is awfully big on...
