IP35-PRO Overclocking guide???

Just got one, looking for the basics of all settings,
I know how to OC, just looking for specifics of this board -iP35 chipset
in other words what are the normal things to bump up to what v. for a average OC,
a baseline if you will, to start with :)
what's the most important ones not to overlook
 
The voltages on the q6600 I'm setting up now look like this in IP35 pro bios 116 for 3600 stable:
vcore:1.4675v
cpu vtt:1.27v
mch:1.37
ich:stock 1.05v
ichio:1.5v
cpu gtl ref:61 and 61
 
Well I'm in the process of OCing mine right now, I'll make a guide if people are interested. Hopefully the database wont eat another one of my guides.

But I've taken my e4300 from 1.8Ghz to 2.95Ghz and all I've had to do so far in the begining was up my cpu voltage. I never touched any of the other voltages except to make my default ram voltage.

1.335v 2.95ish What chip you running?
 
3.01Ghz
1.335v

Only voltage I increased was the cpu
 
so no ther changes just the volts on the ram and cpu?!

Read the guide these intel chipsets are insanely easy to OC. Over thinking them is when you'll have problems. Don't jack your ram just set it at what it's sposed to be at.
 
Perhaps referencing the "Guide to overclocking C2D duals/quads" sticky over in the overclocking and cooling section?

And yes, Intel chipsets have been insanely easy to tweak as of late, perhaps even more so than my last killer abit board (the NF7-S/nForce 2 chipset). Sure made the switch from S939/AMD to S775/Intel (for the first time! about 6 months ago now) that much easier. Have fun, the IP35 Pro is a pretty sweet board.

ps No one can really give you a baseline, some attained settings sure, but all CPU/board/memory/etc capabilities wil be different from system to system. Eg I toasted my first IP35 Pro (v1.0) and had to bump up the CPU volts one more notch to get my system stable on board #2 (v1.1). Best I can say really is read through the sticky, only bump volts as needed, only really where needed, and test thorougly in between (ie Prime95, Memtest+ and so on). Also, if running a quad, make sure you have good case cooling, you will likely see very high PWM temps on full load w/ the board.

edit: @ below - yeah, dunno whyv i didn't think of that thread. Be prepared to be stuck for a while there ;). Lots of info, pretty up to date stuff re: drivers/etc on the board, and so forth. The only thing it seems to be missing is the "bolt mod" (also @ XS; something to consider perhaps if you will be running a quad and have the extremely high PWM temps that I noted), although that's probably linked somewhere in the 248 pages of posts. The only thing I don't like about that thread is in regards to any beta BIOS releases - never any version/release info, neither in the first post w/ links, nor in the downloaded file itself. Although I really see no need to flash it, everything seems fine.

re: bolt mod - just look for posts by user "Ace-a-Rue" - in his sig.
 
Here is the best Overclocking guide forum thread for IP35Pro Ever --->link

The thing is 248 pages and counting..just skim through I'm sure you'll find all the help you'll ever need.
 
just skim thru it...
248 pages
uh OK
I mean a guide specific to this board,
like the other popular boards I see stickied

IT's such an awesome overclocking guide it doesn't even contain a guide but contains links to other forums posting the same thing woooooooooooooooooo!
 
Can the IP35 PRO reach 500mhz fsb? I have the IP35 with E6750 running 4ghz on 500fsb, but would like to get the Pro version for RAID. I feel getting the Pro will hamper my OC.

Would have been the best ever guide for you Wooooohooo!
Below taken from the first POST enjoy.



"WARNING:- DO NOT USE THE WINDOWS FLASHMENU METHOD TO UPDATE YOUR BIOS, HIGH RISK OF BIOS FAILIURE! "( <---lol look at this GEM)



:D:D:D:D

Also way to misread the entire link ftl. That link is not just about the first post although it links helpful information. The whole thread has a wealth of info from users benching and pushing the board to the limits with voltage and bios settings recommendations. People post what works and what doesn't. The OP was asking for a guide well this is that plus a whole thread of forum users that are willing to help new ip35 pro users out.

why would getting the premium mobo in the range hamper your overclock?
if anything it might squeeze another few fsb.

You could always get the IP35 which is an IP35-E with RAID & firewire.

Looked at more forum posts, and looks like IP35-PRO is a champ too! So very tempting to get one now.
