Guys,
I have been directed over to this section of the forum because I need some help with my overclocking. Not really sure where to start and will be fitting my watercooling loop this weekend so want to get the most out of my hardware. My system is all currently running at stock speeds, hardware is as follows (inc w/c kit):
Asus Striker Extreme running BIOS 0701
Corsair Dominator PC8500 DDR2 (with pesky airflow kit)
E6600 @ stock
2 XFX Vanilla 8800GTXs in SLi
2 150GB Raptor Xs in RAID 0
1 300GB Maxtor data drive
Cooling loop:
Rad - PA120.3 with shroud (fitted with 3 Scythe 49cfm 120mm fans)
CPU - Storm
GPUs - EK Delrin backed full cover blocks
Res - Danger Den Dual FDD bayres
PUMP - DDC Ultra with Petra's top
Tubing - Tygon 7/16
I am happy enough at the moment to leave the G80s @ stock. I want to get more performance out of my E6600 before I progress onto the G80s (am also mindful of the additional heatdump!!)....
Where would I start?
Would I be better to start dabbling with the overclock after I have fitted the watercooling?
What settings should I be tweaking and what voltages should I be running at?
Sorry about the questions.....
All help very gratefully received.....get me some good benchies for EP-UK's cause.
Thanks for looking/helping.
