I just tried to overclock my Q6600 B3 to 3Ghz, its stock VID was 3.000v and was coooled by arctic freezer 7 pro (system has 2GB Corsair XMS2 @ 800MHz) and load temps were around 50C max.
When i OCed it i used the following settings:
Mem Unlinked but synced. (tried linked and not synced and was not able to boot windows)
FSB - 1333MHz
Mem - 667Mhz & 800Mhz (both unstable)
Vcore - 1.35 - 1.41 (tried this whole range and nothing was stable)
Mem Volt - Auto
Mem timings were left standard - 5-5-5-18
2 clock.
On the last few attempts i was able to reach the log on screen and a few times just managed to log on before it bluescreened. After the last blue screen i restarted and it comes up with 'Windows Boot Manager' saying "Windows failed too load as registry file is missing or corrupt" ..... WTF have i done wrong.
