Hi,

Can you recommend some good values for overclocking a P35-DS3/Q6600 setup to around 3GHz.
According to TomsHardware, this should give an increase around 25%
And can the stock fan be used?

Cheers,
Walther

My Xbench is now 167

Go into your BIOS and change the Front Side Bus setting however it is called on your board (you should tell us this by the way) to 334mhz leave the multiplier at 9x go to your ram setting change from auto to 2x leave the voltages alone. Then go into your power management disable the speedstep leave on the Thermal Monitor 2 and possibly the C1E ( I always use it with no problems) save the settings then reboot this depending on your boards clock should get you just above 3000mhz.

Mine is at 3ghz.. 334 fsb..
here are my results, before the oc, my total score was 165, it raised everythings performance.
