Can Q6600 be overclocked?
You can’t use ThrottleStop to overclock your Q6600 because that CPU doesn’t have an unlocked multiplier. All overclocking will have to be done from the BIOS via FSB / multiplier adjustments. 3.0Ghz should be doable with your Q6600.
Can you overclock AMD Athlon x4 860K?
Splendid. The AMD Athlon x4 860K has an unlocked CPU multiplier. You simply raise the multiplier to over-clock the CPU.
Can you overclock LGA 775?
With LGA 775 CPUs, we overclock by increasing the Front Side Bus (FSB). The front side bus is quad pumped; therefore, a 266 MHz is 1066 MHz effective. The frequency of a LGA 775 CPU is determined by its FSB speed multiplied by its multiplier.
How does BSEL mod work?
A BSEL mod allows a CPU to be run at a higher speed via hardware modification, without changing any settings in software (Either the BIOS or via software such as SetFSB). Most motherboards (See notes for more about this) use voltage/ground from the pins on a CPU to determine the CPU’s FSB.
