  • help overclocking a Q9650 using a Gigabyte EP45-DS3P

    Hi all, I know this is some very old hardware now but Im having some trouble overclocking a Q9650 over 4ghz on a Gigabyte EP45-DS3P motherboard,
    I was originally not getting it to post over 3.9ghz using generic memory but after switching to some corsair xms2 it will now boot but crashes when loading windows, Ive got a stable 3.9ghz but id like 4.3 if possible. below are the specs and my current OC settings, can anyone help? thanks
