I'm running a week 44G E6600 (I've heard some awful results with 44G, but also some promising ones) on a Bad Axe 2.
Went ahead and disabled all the features that inhibit OC'ing (such as VT, C1, watchdog, etc etc) and gave it a go.
I'm topping out right now when using 1.55V at around 350FSB, even when using the 1333 strap. My memory is Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800, and it's underclocked at the moment since I'm running it 1:1. Bad Axe 2's are known to be able to easily hit well above 400 Mhz FSB, so I think the CPU is the culprit here.
To note: I'm running Vista 32-bit and all of my failures when running Orthos instantly result in a blue screen of death. No error reported by Orthos ever -- just the BSOD.
I can post up to about 3.4 Ghz or so, but nothing past that. Am I doing something wrong? I manually switch to the 1333 strap when I try anything above 350 FSB, I've made minor rasies to NB & SB voltages, and disabled everything I could think of. Am I missing anything or is this just an awful 44G?
Running 3.25 Ghz now @ 1.5625V. With my tuniq tower I'm getting idle temps of 35 degrees with max load in orthos beta of about 49.
