hey i have a q6600 at 3.2ghz on a ep45 ds3l board. and i want to get to 3.4ghz what settings should i change here are my stable settings right now

cpu vcore - 1.325 (1.28 in windows)
cpu termination - 1.3
cpu pll - 1.550
cpu reference - auto

mch core - 1.16
mch reference - auto
ich i/o - auto

If you have DRR2-1066 RAM it is fine to run it at 1063. Make sure you have set Vdimm and timings to whatever the manufacturer spec is. You will also probably need to bump the MHC and Vcore up a bit too. I'd try 1.3v mch and 1.4 vcore and if stable then lower them and test stability again.

prime95 fails with the setting s you told me to do. should i try upping the cpu termination voltage? and i have the ep45 ds3l mobo and it says it can handle up to 1600mhz in the fsb. but with 3.4ghz it goes to 1700mhz. will my mobo handle that?
