E8600+Gigabyte EP45-DQ6

Hello guys, finally i received my first E8600!
I had to try a Gigabyte EP45-DQ6 so i used it for a quick test
It seem really not bad this E8600, on air i can run 4M at 4300mhz with only 1.21v

And it seem not bad also under LN2...of course the limit isn't the cpu :)

E8600 1.78v -110°C

cool man! didnt u push volts abit more? 1.79 still low under LN2

nice result , why only 1.78v have tried more ??

wow.. that is impressive. why does it read 110C on LN2?

very promising
what about coldbug?

Coldbug around -130°C...
I used 1.78 couse i was NB limited...no better with more voltage. I tried also with 6x multi but 637 was my max too :)
I'll try tomorrow with different mobo settings :up:

Good job bro ;)

Good Job Dude !!

great stuff !
tempted to get one of these !

Congrats my friend nice chip & good job ;)

Just an update...i tried to play with settings on my Giga and i achieved some improvements...i had to use more than 2v due to high vdrop and strange effect under load. With DM i read 1.88v on the line. Not bad anyway....don't look the spi1m time couse my ddr2 sux and i couldn't set less than 5-5-5-15 timings.
