Whats your q6600 speed on air?

The max Stable clock I have gotten out of my current Q6600 is 3.6Ghz on Air, though I run it daily at 3.5Ghz as it runs a little cooler with a little less voltage going through it. It was lapped by the previous owner.
My previous Q6600 was a higher Vid and so was good for 3.4Ghz Stable on Air.

3.4Ghz at 1.28v (1.20v VID)
Gets to about 70°C using IBT and 62°C PRIME95 with VX and two Apache fans.
Once the AS5 has bedded in I'll try for 3.6Ghz.

3.6ghz with an H50. (similar to good air cooling) 1.3250vid. Intel burn test passes on standard but fails on maximum after about 5 minutes. Prime95 is stable for about an hour and half before failing.
More volts doesnt seem to help and im running memory at stock (400 x 9) defeault [email protected]
max temps 80c. Just below 1.5v on load, 1.47 i think. 1.55 in bios

3.2ghz (8x 400) Vcore 1.28v
AC freezer 7
4gb (2 x 2gb) @ 800mhz geil black dragon 5-5-5-18 stock uppped Vdimm to 2.1v and ram stays memtest stable @ 4-4-4-12.
Will do 1066mhz @ 5-5-5-18 but tbh i find i get better results using tighter timings and lower speed ie 800mhz.
IBT = 60degs
Prime = 52 degs
I could go higher but dont think the extra fan noise/heat etc is worth the gains. Nothing i play at the moment runs that bad i feel like i need a few 100 mhz more when the time comes ill prob have a go at 4ghz at some insane Vcore setting thou
My last mobo asus P5N-E SLI wouldnt OC at all with crazy Vcore settings needed for anything above 2.8ghz

One thing i find that loves mhz is Dosbox with games from late 90s. Playing blood in 800x600 is so much better now. dual core @2.8ghz wasnt really playable in 640x480. [email protected] flys when on 800x600. (1024x768 is still unplayable)

When i had mine i ran it at 3.8ghz, 1.2750 vid, 1.512 vcore for 3.8, board was an asus p5q deluxe and both cpu and TRUE cooler lapped. Sold it and bought an EO stepping q9550.

3GHz (333*9), 1.425v. 59c with Freezer 7 Pro.

3.2GHz @ 8X400 with 1.4550v BIOS about 1.370v after vdroop reported by HW Monitor. I suppose I could push it but with 4X1GB sticks of RAM I think I am at the upper limit and tbh 3.2GHz is more than enough for me. Oh and VID is 1.325v as well
Comes in at 65C under full load with a Noctua U12P and Scythe S-Flex 1600RPM 120mm fan.

I also have a 1.275 VID. I have heard its the best chip for overclocking

3Ghz @ 1.272v. 1.2875 VID. Load temps 54 54 49 49.

3.3GHz (9x370) @ 1.44v
1.2875v VID

I would push it further, 3 of the cores are 24-hr prime stable but core 3 dies after about a minute. Argh !
Idles at about 40c, peaks at 65c on prime.

3.6 ghz IBT stable vcore @ 1.55 in bios, VID 1.325, using megahalem with 2 yate loon fans.

Mine is 3.2ghz and stable. I want to know what i could potentially achieve
I have 4gb of geIL ultra low latency RAM, an ABIT IP-35 PRO motherboard and artic freezer 7 pro
I havent clocked the RAM...I have no idea how
I have EXACTLY the same 4gb of Geil ULL RAM; and ip32 pro mobo.
I'm at 3.31 GHz.
That's enough for me.
