    Q6600 Stability Problems and Voltage Discrepancies

    Which non-capacitive Paste?

    I have Arctic Cooling MX-2 paste. The nice thing about it is that there's no burn-in time, so it works right out of the box (err... tube). It's performance is just as good as Arctic Silver 5 in my experience.

    Hey there! I'm currently overclocking an Intel Q6600 processor. Right now I'm having problems getting a stable overclock, Prime95 is reporting an error with Core 3 after a few hours no matter how high I can set the processor voltage. On my Asus P5K SE motherboard, I've set the voltage to 1.4...
