Q6700 overclock

[ThePotatoMan1248]

ok i have a q6700 core 2 quad. Asus p5k se/epu. it runs 60-65c under load at 3.2 GHz at stock voltage. i am afriad of uping voltage because i don't want to break anything, but i want to get a little more proformance out of it undtil the summer when i get completely new hardware. what voltage should i use to get a certain frequency. also is it worth overclocking on this chip anymore then i did

if it runs at 3.2 GHz you should be happy man... I doubt you'll be able to get anything more out of it

Ok I'm surprised what a 10 year old cpu can do

That sounds like a pretty hefty overclock on that chip, plus at stock voltage that sounds like a real winner lol.

 

I think Linus said his core2duo(I don't remember the exact chip) back in the day got to 3.6 ghz so 3.2 ghz on a quad core sounds real amazing.  So congrats man!
