Hey all,
Well just FYI I B%^&* slapped myself for not realizing what a powerful CPU I have had...for 3 years! I just finished being confident enough to OC my C2D e6750 2.66Ghz. So I have been fooling and increasing it SLOWLY. I updated the BIOS and just changed the multiplyer from 6 to 8. I left all the voltages at auto as well. I increased the bus speed gradualy to 1800 which gave me a 3.6Ghz OC! Course soon as I post this I'm taking it back to a 3.2 or 3.4 with the auto feature in BIOS that allows the system to ramp up the Ghz as needed (I forgot what that feature was called exactly). Anyway figured if I could do it anyone could. Still gotta stress test it at 3.2 or 3.4 then decide which one is more stable to keep. Here is a desktop pic and link. See ya!
