New E6300 clocks like a dream.

[Vulcan]

New E6300, picked from a 2 others and an E6600 I ordered from newegg.

L629B032
520x7, 1.50V after Vdroop.

[claxer]

very nice... what mobo you got there?

[PcCI2iminal]

very nice E6300

:clap:

[crspyjohn]

Samething with my E6300 but my DS3 board died after I did the overclock so bah!

Wow, this is ironic. I just got my E6300 from newegg today, and it too is a L629B032:) To bad this chip isnt going into a PC that needs to be OCed. This PC is for working purposes only, so stabilty is #1 concern. However I OC'ed it only to 335x7 (2.33GHz) of course using stock Vcore.

[PanteraGSTK]

Nice, my ds3 wasn't stable enough at 3700mhz for orthos.:(

[Kunaak]

are newer 6300's doing bad lately?

I have a very early 6300 I got from newegg that does 7 x 533 just fine, at 1.5 volts. seems the latest ones are somehow neuterd.
ever since the E4300 came out, seems the 6300 and 6400 are not as good as they use to be... wonder what changed.

7 x 520 at 14 hours prime is nothing to scoff at though.
definatly a keeper.

[natedog420]

i had high hopes for my e6300 too. i bought it from newegg about a month ago and got a Q649A178 and it will do 500fsb with alot of vcore but no more. its the L2 rev and it sucks bad cuz i wanted very high fsb but o well. its missing resistors on the bottom compared to my brothers e6300 when they first came out. thanks alot intel for neuturing my e6300:slapass: bs i tell you im so mad.

INTEL = :slapass: :slapass: :slapass:

I think the new L2 steppings are not as good. I just got an e6300 Q648A299, it's stable at 7x429 for 3.0ghz @ 1.425 in bios, about 1.37 under load. I can get it to 7x458, but takes 1.525 in bios to get there. I can bench it, but temps get too high for a 24/7 clock.

I noticed this also.

Mine will do 533 as well, but I need better NB cooling to actually use it. I'm solving that with a HR-05 SLI.:clap:

[dinos22]

hey Kunnak

it's usually motherboards that are stopping people from pushing further

my chip was good for 1.4v with 3.6GHz and that should translate to 1.45v 3.7 and 1.5v 3.8GHz on air..... but the motherboard can't handle it for me anyways

i wouldn't mind buying one of those DFIs to at least have 1066 strap at 500MHz FSB for 24/7 system

yeah, it seems like newer weeks aren't doing as well compared to the late 20's. that and there's some e63/64 that are l2 allendales now :(

Nice! Is that 100% stable? I've got my e6400 @ 3600 1.46v and it'll pass orthos (small, large, blend, custom with 8-1024 5 min) for 27+ hours (canceled when hit 27), but isn't truly stable. In everyday usage, I get random bugouts with programs crashing or bsod's. More vcore doesn't help. Tried up to 1.55v load. This is with a few different boards and ram albeit all p965. Sorry to threadjack

[Scyth3]

Dunno why, but my e6300 L628A574 hits a wall at around 450mhz.:(

[crspyjohn]

Week 31 seems to overclock well. I got 500fsb on my.

[Vulcan]

I'm using a P5B Deluxe.

I can go further, but its pretty obvious the board starts getting flakey.

For now I've backed off to 3.5Ghz on 1.39V.

[Aldy402]

@vulcan

i got mines about 3 months ago, and its the best chip i've ever owned
cant really tell you the stepping,lapped it and 4got to write it down

same results as you at 3.5ghz with 1.39v, did the vdroop mod and lapped it and now it does 3.6 , 7 hours orthos stable at priority 9

[Gautam]

Who else votes that Vulcan droop mods his board and pounds 1.7v into that biatch? :D

[freeagent]

LOL

thats a nice chip man, congrats :)

everyones results here makes me want better ram heheh

[TI66ER]

heres my 24/7(1.325vcore)-

http://img.techpowerup.org/070307/cpuz35.jpg

and my best(1.425vcore)-

http://img.techpowerup.org/070307/Untitled5.jpg

and mine is a L629B405

[HamidFULL]

FSB 520 is not deram I have one!

Aldy, it will also bet written on the box

[Blknoel]

Mine is also a 29B, click link in sig for max OC on air (1.6v in BIOS, 1M Pi stable lol) 572x7

24/7 OC that I use is 500x7 1.37v

ooooooooof please tell me complete name of your batch!!

[Blknoel]

I did take picture of the IHS before lapping it, too bad it seems to have been lost when I reformatted windows =S

So I now dont have a clue myself. =/, but L629B is for sure correct :p:

[Ku-sama]

dayum, I got lucky then... apparently our L629B's clock like a dream... I'm at 3.529GHz with stock voltages... stupid RAM

[Aldy402]

mines is L627A440, thanks dragonorta, got it from the box

[zbomb5610]

You know what sucks, i tried a L629B037 about 2 days ago, wouldn't overclock worth crap, barely hit 3.1 and i didn't even want to keep testing it to see what i could get it stable at. I ended up returning it, got a L632A which does around 3.2 with close to 1.4v, but i am planning on trying out a few more cpu's and hopefully getting one that will oc well.

My cousin's e6300 in my setup was getting around 3.4+ which is the kind of cpu i want.

[Shaolin3a]

Here's mine at 500x7 1.375v with droop mod. Its completely stable and running FAH 24/7. I'm sure it can go higher too but ram and heat are holding me back.

If I remember correctly it's L630A. I also tried several newer 6400's but they couldn't overclock as well as this.

My E6300 is the L625A712, packaged in Malaysia July/06. It does 3640MHz @ 520FSB x 7 easy, with my P5B Vanilla and Crucial PC6400 ram @ 4-5-5-5-12.

[SSXeon]

Nice OC Vulcan! Almost 2GHz oc!



my chip was good for 1.4v with 3.6GHz and that should translate to 1.45v 3.7 and 1.5v 3.8GHz on air..... but the motherboard can't handle it for me anyways


Is that the same for the QX6700? Thanx.

[Vulcan]

Yes indeed. 3.6 ended up being stable as low as 1.45V. For now I have backed down to 3.5Ghz on 1.35V. No reason to run higher, and My P5B start acting finicky once I get near 520MHz FSB.

In other news... I've ordered two Xeon 3060s, and I'll be ordering a 975X board soon [I need suggestions on this, I'm thinking Abit AW9D]. Lets hope one of the 3060s is decent, eh? :cool:

Damn! Wait i thought Xeons dont work in 975X's, right?

BTW what are the max temps for your E6300?

[ziddey]

3000's should

Damn i didnt know that. Too bad the 2.66s are $1200! :eek:

[Vulcan]

Well, the 3060s are cheap. about the same as e6600s.

[Kobalt]

Just got a "Q702A226" Malay from newegg. It only has 3 of the large resistors/caps on the bottom as opposed to 7 in this picture below. All my parts came today except the motherboard :rolleyes:, but when I get everything setup I'll post some results.




I think this is the normal/older E6300?

Great E6300 clocks like mad :toast:
