Right, small overclocking issue.
I did read the stickied guide in the Intel forum, and did Google around.
Q6600 B3 stepping
Zalman 9700 HSF
Asus P5B-Deluxe
4x 1gb Corsair PC6400 sticks
8800GTX
With any 2 sticks of RAM installed in any 2 memory slots I can get the computer to POST at 401 FSB (RAM at 802mhz) with a 7x multiplier (just for testing) and run 2x Orthos all day long with temps never exceeding 60C. At standard vcore.
As soon as I use all 4 sticks of RAM the computer will not POST at any FSB higher than 315. I do not understand why. And 315*9 does not really appeal to me at all.
Tried upping every single voltage in my computer by a few steps with no result, and the vcore by a lot, yet same thing.
This same motherboard with 2gb ram could easily run a E6600 at 401*9 (3.6ghz), so I know the motherboard can handle high FSB.
