C2Q overclocking on BX2

Hi guys!

I'm looking for bios settings or a guide to help me overclock a Q6600 on
a Bad Axe 2.

Can anyone help?

Google it...theres gotta be a million reviews online by now and most have an attempt made to OC.

Their you go. If you just purchased the MB return it now. Your best bet for a quad will be a P35 chipset board. You will get a lot more out of that processor. I have a E6600 on a XBX2 and love it. @ 3.3 ghz it's very fast. Not the best OC but it's the CPU. Bad luck for me. Anyways whatever you do best of luck.

Thanks Maglin. I was actually just there and got most what I needed.

I had the board for a while now. Ran a Pentium D on it until the relatively recent Intel price cut.

I read great things about the P35 boards and was about to get a Blitz Formula when they suddenly vanished. I still plan to get a new board but in the meantime I wanted to see what my BX2 could do for me.

I have the latest bios and so far it's not cooperating. I'll post more details tomorrow.
