Re: Q6600 3.6 + EP45-DS3R + OCZ Reaper 1200MHz

First of all please do this >>>>

CPU Termination…..... 1.200V.......: <<< Please set 1.25-1.45 (Auto WAY Overvolts this, same as below)

CPU PLL…………………....1.500V.......: << Please set 1.5-1.6
CPU Reference.…………....0.755V.......: AUTO
ICH Core…………...……1.100V............: <<< 1.1-1.2
MCH Reference….…….0.800V...........; <<< AUTO
MCH/DRAM Ref.…......0.900V...........: <<< Auto
ICH I/O……………….....1.500V............: <<< 1.500

DRAM
DRAM Voltage ……....1.800V............: <<< 2.4 << Is your ram rated to take this much voltage?

DRAM Termination .…0.900V............: <<< Auto
Channel A Reference 0.900V............: <<< AUTO
Channel B Reference 0.900V............: <<< AUTO


I need your full settings to best advise, but the above settings need to be changed. Please fill this out with your exact settings, and link me to your ram if you can.... Thanks! >>>>

This is Just a template I use to ask people their settings, pay no attention to the numbers in it, replace with yours

Re: Q6600 3.6 + EP45-DS3R + OCZ Reaper 1200MHz

Thank You very much for Your advice.
I have made some changes to the bios settings, but still one of the cores goes red in PRIME95. You were right - ram can't take so much voltage. I changed ram to 2.3V and now it's much better but still i have problems with stability.

Re: Q6600 3.6 + EP45-DS3R + OCZ Reaper 1200MHz

Finally i get my full stable platform. THANKS VERY MUCH!
Is there a chance to get FSB 500 on this board? What should I change?

Re: Q6600 3.6 + EP45-DS3R + OCZ Reaper 1200MHz

Hmm, not sure if Q660 will do 500 FSB? Glad to see you are stable

If you would like suggestions anyway for 500 FSB let me know and I will post you some later, sorry I am on my way out the door. I can say, that many Auto's wont likely get you very far, and are likely hurting your performance right now as well.
