You're running your Q6600 at 2.4Ghz? :o

Overclock that thing NOW! It will easily reach 3.2Ghz without a hitch.

Nowadays overclocking basically amounts to changing your FSB speed in the BIOS without any soldering etc. like back in the olden days... I've been running my Core2Duo E6600 @ 3.2 GHz for over a year now... The processor was running without OC for a whole 5 minutes or so. ;-)

Uh...

CPU: Intel C2D E4500 2.20 Ghz
GPU: [lol] NVIDIA 8400GS [lol]
Mobo: Dunno, ECS or whatever, some Chinese crap.
RAM: 2 Gigs of some manufacturer
HDD: 250 Gb
Display: Philips 19 inch SmartAccessory
OS: Windows XP

I can play TF2 at 1440x900 at 60-70 FPS on DirectX 8.1 mode, lol
If I play on DirectX 9.0 mode, I can only get a resonable FPS at the 640x480 res, lool.

But, hey IT WORKS! lol. Did I tell you that I can run Crysis?
I'm planing on getting a 8600 GT since it is at 100€ here in Portugal, do you think it runs TF2 (and other games like Crysis :D) in Dx 9.0 with the shiny models, AA, HDR and all the good stuff at least on the 1024x768 resolution? lol

crysis u can forget, i tried it with my 8600gts, u can expect max 10-20 fps in crysis on very high even at that resolution.
should be fine in TF2

Heh? They both use the DirectX API in most games so have access to the same kinds of effects... The only thing that matter is the speed at which thew cards process them. =)

If any of you need help with overclocking - visit http://www.overclock.net

Pretty much the biggest overclocking community. Everyone is always happy to help anyone with their overclocking "quests".

Usually this is because you have to increase the voltage going to your CPU, also known as VCORE.

If you need any further help, please tell me what CPU, motherboard, RAM and cooling you have.

increasing the voltage only doesnt help much still
cpu: Q6600 mobo: XFX nforce 680i LT rams: 2x 1gb crucial ballistix 800mhz stock cooling? thermaltake golden orb, and an nzxt lexa case with 2500 rpm noisy fan in the back for removing hot air from the cpu

ive seen people clocking it over 3,6ghz on this mobo on air. but i think u need to change something on the chipset options, MCP or SPP, not really sure

Yes, you will in most cases have to raise the Northbridge and FSB voltages up a notch, too. Northbridge might appear as "MCH" or "NB". Up it by 0.1v at a time and see if that makes a difference.

I think the Q6600 have a 9x multiplier, so set your FSB to 400Mhz and set your RAM/CPU ratio to 1:1. Alternatively, maybe try to aim for 3.2Ghz first.

See how you get on, just don't go too crazy and break anything. Small steps at a time.

Plus, I would strongly recommend getting a better CPU cooler, especially with a quad!

Good all-round system, but I hope you are using a 64-bit O/S to utilise all that 8GB of RAM!
