Let’s start with a run down of all the terms you are going to need to know. This reduces the chances of damaging your precious new system. This is a very basic tutorial, and is written for those with very limited computer knowledge, so, vcore, North Bridge, and RAM voltages will not be altered. Your results will probably differ from mine. This revision runs cooler and over clocks better. If you haven’t already done so make sure your chip is a G0 revision by looking at CPU-Z. Turn off your PSU, wait about 15-30 seconds and try again. After a crash your computer might not restart right away. You will probably crash a couple of times.

Over clocking is a trial and error process. You will need proper cooling to over clock your CPU. That is one of the best heat sinks available right now. It will shut down to avoid damage, but it is best not to push it. The T-junction is the maximum temperature at the junction between the processor die and the PCB it sits on. The T-Junction on the Q6600 (G0) is 100C. Ī very important note: Make sure you have proper cooling.

Finally, to test system stability you will need Prime95 v25. You are also going to need CPU-Z to list all the different settings found on your processor and RAM. You are going to need coretemp to monitor your….well… core temperatures. First, you are going to need several programs to record temperatures, monitor your processes, and stress test. In this tutorial, I will walk you through the over clocking process on a Asus P5K-E motherboard.
