nice benches, how is the stability of the quad core at those speeds!

thanks.. 4 x memtest instances/3dmarks can run all day long

Just started upgrading my PC again and I'm kinda dissapointed the new single GPU cards don't even give 50% over the 8800GTX I purchased like 2 years ago. What happened to 50-100% increase every 6-12 months lol. At least I now feel I got my moneys worth :) Anything better coming out in the not too distant future?

the new GTX280 due out soon.. should definitely be twice the 8800GTX if im not mistaken

Niche Benchmarks :clap:


excellent results with the EP45 DQ6 :up:

gracias solid snake

I think you just broke Aquamark .... :shakes:

You have too much ownage with that 4.5 Ghz quad.

too much ownage @ 4.5ghz ??

fine!.. ill start a new thread @ 4.8ghz all air :)

Awesome work :up:

I have the IFX-14 too and I was wondering what fan u where using and if u lapped it?

PS I use a 133CFM Scythe Kaze Ultra or a Delta 220CFM :D

thanks :)

no lap.. factory lap.. though i wish for a copper ifx14.. waiting on copper true

2 x YSTech 7.92w

yeh i gotta get a couple of those deltas.. for even more cfm

Thx

Yeah a copper IFX-14 would be awesome :eek:

Also I can't wait to see the performance of the copper TRUE :)

Nice :up:

How is you're setup when running 4.5ghz on the q9650?? I'm at 4.0ghz now, but am wondering how to set it up. To get to 4.5
Almost everything is on auto so far. The multiplier is 9.0x445 and cpu volt is at 1,3v Is it possible to get a detalied list of the settings needed??

fast.. lol

my volts dont even work on otherss ep45s..

one things for sure.. keep vtt higher than the vcore..

~1.6vtt/~1.5vcore @ bios is all i need to run 4.5ghz stable

^ The VTT thing goes with the Q6600 as well?

I bet it's fast.. :clap:

Isn't 1.5 vcore abit mutch? Won't the cpu fade and become slow kinda fast?
So 1.392 as shown in the first thread might not work then:shrug: It worked just on that ep45

didnt get to try any kenties.. kent vs york are different beasts

1.5 @ full load drops to 1.4

1.5vcore: peanuts for me and my q9650s :)

this q9650 (1.2125vid) has been @ 4.8ghz on air:

for 3 months now @ xtreme voltages.. no degradations whasoever

:clap: I will get my Giga UD3P setup ready soon enough to try to beat you to the 5Ghz but not on air ;)

Thanks for all the pointers mate and keep up these amazing clocks on air. :up:

Wow that's nice.

Should i try 1.5-1.6v vtt and the vcore at 1.4-1.5v anf 500fsb
This is how my system is running now

So if i understand right i need to set the cpu volt up and then the "FSB Voltage adjustment" That's the vtt right? If it is it won't go higher then 1,50V
My bios dosen't have anything called cpu vtt

The awesomeness of the E0! :up:
