Was wondering what is the maximum 'safe' voltage for the E6600.
I am finding it difficult to overclock this CPU ( bought after price drop ) without going to 1.4V plus.
Makes me appreciate my 2.4C that would do 3.0 at stock.

Thanks.
 
Cool.
I was a bit concerned because on the box it says '1.35 volts.' I tried searching Intel's website but only found info on temperatures.
Right now I am a bit over 1.4V in bios, approx. 50C while runnig Orthos, no errors for 1-1/2 hours.

On another note, is the Intel Desktop Utilies monitoring accurate? I have read posts of people referencing Intel's TAT but cannot find a download for it. ( I know, maybe I haven't tried hard enough, but the adult beverages are kicking in. )

Also, am I the only one that finds this 'configuration jumper' to be a royal pain in the ass?

All in all, this Bad Axe 2 / E6600 seems to be a very fast platform.

Thanks.
