Hi, everyone. I just bought all the components for my new rig on Black Friday:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 retail
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P
RAM: 4gb Corsair Dominator DDR2 1066 w/ RAM cooling fan
Cooling: Air cooling - XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 (+5 other case fans)
Graphics: EVGA GeForce GTX 260
Misc: 600W PSU, 1T HD, 500gb HD, 52in1 Card Reader, 22x DVD DL/CD
I'm definitely planning to overclock it. I've OC'ed before, mainly my E2200, but still consider myself a newbie. I know OC'ing the Q8200 will be different with how much voltage it can handle and it's low multiplier. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or advice? I'm also wondering if anyone else OC'ed their Q8200, what settings they used. Just to give me a starting point with mine.
