Merry Christmas everyone,
My current setup, is a Q9550, 4G of xms2, on a EP45-UD3P mobo, with a FB ver. award Bios, and 850v PSU, also have a gigabyte water coolor for my CPU block.

I can run it at 9.5 x 400 fine, at 32 degrees celcius, but anything more without pushing the voltages super high i cant get anything more. Also i have my ddr voltage to 2.1, set to 4-4-4-12. But Does anyone have any screen shots of the same bios ver. with successful overclocks?

Also when i change my FSB set up to 3.33D it just changes it too 800- 1333, are there any tips anyone can give me?
Thanks!

Sorry realized i unclocked everything, currently im running 5:6

DRAM FREQ is at 400mhz

5-5-5-18-42-2T
Stock voltage.
 
In your first post you mentioned that the RAM timings were 4-4-4-12 at 2.1V, this w/ the FSB at 400MHz 1:1 FSB : DRAM ratio. If the rated timings are 5-5-5-18-2T at DDR2-800, why did you have the timings set so tight? And what's the rated voltage for the modules?
 
Also, what are you load temps? I dont think 32C on a Gigabyte watercooling setup can be right for load temps. Run Prime for 30 mins and give us the CPU while it's still running....
