overcocking a QX6700

Hi, with a few attempts to overclock my QX6700 with a P5W-DH Deluxe and a PC-9136 Corsair Dominator haven't gained stability...
Having searched google etc... I haven't found extremely useful stuff... I'd love a guide in which it explains in details how to overclock a QX6700 (the simplest way)... A better explanation of the P5W-DH BIOS would be welcome as well.
Thanks
 
Well, how far are you getting? Compared to the P965 and nForce 680i, the i975X chipset on the P5W-DH doesn't overclock as well. The high-end seems to be around 300-330ish just prowling around for info.
 
That might be the problem. Not having a P5W-DH to check, I couldn't give you specifics, so some of these suggestions may not even apply.

-Use the smallest OC Incremental profile
-Failing that, leave your voltages, timings, etc to auto, and work on the FSB.
Up this slowly and test it (I think you know what programs will help here).

I haven't read the whole thing, but this thread is about P5W-DH overclocking, so you might benefit from seeing who's doing what.

I don't really know of any guide to specifically address a point by point overclock with your motherboard. The best thing to do is look for the P5W-DH and check threads in other forums, to get an idea of what settings to hone in on.

Overclocking, especially fine-tuning, involves some trial and error, so don't expect to hammer out this OC in a day or two.
