Use msi afterburner, it will let you alter clocks and fan speed if you wish, i leave the fan setting on auto so it adjusts the fan depending on gpu temp. Latest version lets you change volts too which it didn't before. http://www.guru3d.com/ get it in the downloads section at the top of...

God my spelling is terrible !!!!! i'm not even lexdyslic!!

Got mine oc'd to 850 1200 with no voltage change. By the way, would post this on the graphics card catergary, people get most upset if it's not in the relevent place lo, !!

Yeah mate, better to be safe than utterly ****ed off!!

there is someone on here who puts a table out about what temps the q6600 can get to, and i recall it's pretty high, but generally people say over 75 is harmful. i wouldn't go higher though until the temps can be pulled down a bit,

I always go by the unwritten law---" over 75deg is too high" Is it a standard cpu cooler you have? Also, when prime fails do you get the message about critical error? If so it's your memory. In the past i have ran prime for 3-6 hours no problems, then run it again and one core will fail...

If it helps my v-core is 1.425, i know it's a different mobo but volts should be fairly similar across the boards i would have thought??

When you run cpuid what does it say for your voltage?

You don't need a bigger heat sink than the fenrir mate, they are big enough as it is, i had to remove my top fan on the side panel to fit my fenrir in and i have a cm 690 dominator case. My 6600 runs idle at 23-25 deg across the cores, 56 max under full load in prime.

Will this be of use?? http://www.overclockersonline.net/reviews/50001921/

I see you mem says 800mhz----is that the fastest it will go?? or do you have it set at that speed?

Ah ok, thats good to know, i updated to 10.4 driver on Sunday and thought that might be the cause, as it was fine oc'd with previos driver. Crysis has been running ok along with dirt 2, it's just certain parts of mw2. Thanks mate.

Hi all not sure if this thread is in the right place, if not i appologies!!:D Basically i have oc'd my sapphire 5850 to 850 and 1200 at stock volts, i done this as when i first started playing mw2, there were certain parts of the game which involved fast movement in a jeep and firing the...

I don't really notice the fan to be honest, i let it run at stock speed and it doesn't sound that loud to me, Never had the need to up the fan speed as the temps are always good.

I got my q6600 @3.4 along with a sapphire 5850 oc'd today @850 and 1200, runs crysis no problems and dirt 2 really well, i have vantage but my free period has expired so don't know what my score is (startssobbingascanttakeitanymore)

Brilliant, thanks for that. Time to play!!!

I cant open the config file or any other files, when i try i get a box saying open with, it then takes me to a website but not sure what to download, or if i really need to.......if anyone could enlighten me thanks

Ok thanks for that, will give it a go. I read a previous thread which described what you just said, but that was just for voltage. Cheers

Let us know how you get on. Hopefully that is the sollution !!

Hi i have been trying to oc my sapphire 5850, currently i have Afterburner, ccc and riva tuner. Now... afterburner opens fine, i can change the fan speeds, but can't up the clocks, Riva tuner will only let me adjust monitor settings, whenever i open the app i get a message saying " has...
