Hello,

I have searched the forums and guides and think I am close, but was wondering if some others have this same setup and can help me? I'm looking to OC the following setup...

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-965P-S3 Rev. 1.0, flashed to latest BIOS F14
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
RAM: 4 x 1 GB DDR2 800 (PC6400) / ADATA ADGVE1A08
Cooler: CORSAIR Hydro Series H50 120mm
Power supply: Antec 500w

CPU Clock Multiplier: 9
CPU Host Freq.: Would like to push this over 3.0 GHZ if possible
System Memory Multiplier: (confused here)
Memory Bus Speed: help?
VCore Voltage: bump this up by single increments?
VTT Voltage: help?

I'm concerned that having 4 sticks of memory are going to throw off the cpu, as I have read in some threads. Also, I'm lost when it comes to setting the multiplier, etc.

Any help? Thanks in advance.

You have to OC the CPU from the FSB setting it little higher every time, Like adding 5 mhz everytime, Also set your voltage to something and not leave it at auto mode, You can lookup guides on the internet and youtube and see how to do it properly, Also you need a good cooler if you dont have one.
Here is a guide i've found : http://archive.atomicmpc.com.au/forums.asp?s=2&c=27&t=496
