![]() ![]() ![]() It appears your motherboard is only capable of supporting dual core processors, I don't want to sound greedy, but I am going for overkill, and nothing says overkill like a quad core processor in 2006. My g31m s2c seems to be able to run above 500mhz fsb but stupid ram is bottlenecking meītw ignore the 41 and 43 series mobos are they are fsb limited making them useless bricks only useful for bseling q6600, 41 goes to ~370, 43 goes to ~420ģ1 goes to ~450fsb but if your board is on steroids then expect 500mhz+ģ3 goes to ~500 but a roided board will go near 600fsb Well if you are retro gaming i suggest just picking up a cheap 4 heatpipe tower, 1066 ddr2 or 2133/2400mhz ddr3, an e84-8600, and shoving those into your system and ocing it Had to wait months which is normal now but wasn’t then. All I remember is all the intel motherboards had skulls on them. My memory is the core2quad had weird overclocking issues and the only ones that would really do it right were some boards made specifically by intel that were expensive and hard to get. Also, Windows 7 refuses to install without corrupting, so Windows 10 is what I am forced to use for the time being with the stock DELL motherboard. What do I do next? I am stuck looking for a solution, I have no idea what to do next. LGA 775 socket, I know all of the components individually work, and together they all work except for the q6600 and this motherboard, various RAM, GPU, PSU, BIOS (the ones I could find), and SSD configs are tested working, but the q6600 refuses to boot with the motherboard. I forget the last few numbers, but it has 4 ram slots, a yellow and red color scheme, and a gold heatsink. The Motherboard is called the GA-EP45-xxxx. This motherboard is tested and working with a Core 2 Duo E8400 I believe. I have a motherboard with overclocking capabilities, and is officially stated by Gigabyte on their website to support SPECIFICALLY the q6600. Problem is, the only resolution I can run my games at is seriously undertaxing my GPU so that my 460 is being bottlenecked by my Core 2 Quad q6600. I recently got ahold of an old Dell server/workstation INSPIRON T3400, bought a new PSU and GPU (GTX 460), and set out to get the old machine running Windows 7 for some late 2000's gaming. ![]()
