hello
can u help me please i wanna know what is the best setting for overclocking my computer
processor:- intel core 2 quad q6600 @2.40ghz multiplier x9.0 bus speed 266mhz rated fsb 1066mhz cpu temperature 44 degrees room temperature is about 20 to 25 degrees is it possible to get it running at 3ghz with cooling Scythe Ninja Plus Rev B Fanless HeatPipe Cooler with a 120mm Fan Mounting motherboard:- asus p5n-e sli chipset nforce 650i sli spp southbridge nforce 650i sli mcp ram:- corsair cm2x 4x1024-6400 dram freq 400mhz fsb:dram 2:3 cl 4 trcd 4 trp 4 tras 12 trc 22 cr 2t
Raise the CPU frequency to 333MHz (1333MHz FSB), lower the RAM setting to 333MHz (DDR667) to match the CPU, lock the PCI-e at 100MHz. That will put the CPU at 3.0GHz with a FSB:DRAM ratio of 1:1

Burn or idle?
60C is a safe burn/full load temperature, but if it's idling at that temp, then you need to check your cooling setup.
