    Q6700, P5B DLX, 2 GB HZ. Want to get to 3Ghz...

    I'm using the Q6700, which has the 10x multiplier, hence teh 3.33 Ghz setting. I had my E6600 @ 3.00 Ghz - 9 x 333, and kept all my settings from then when i put in the Q6700, and no dice. All voltages were kept the same.

    The only difference is the addition of the flash memory for Vista's Readyboost and it COMES with ScreenDUO, whereas the others do not.

    Does anyone know if the faceplate is removeable on the cooler and if so how? My friend likes to make custom faceplates for his graphics cards (He's made them since the 6800s), and would like to know. If anyone can post a picture of the faceplate removed that would help too ;)
