FPO number Q812A268, my board is a Gigabyte EP35C DS3R with F2 bios verion installed, i`ve tried with F3b and F3e but the results are mostly the same, 2 GB of Corsair XMS2 6400 CL4, Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 on the cpu, the ram voltage is 2.1 when oc`ed it runs 1:1 with the cpu, i don`t know what to say have I stumbled upon a very hungry CPU or am I not doing the correct changes in my bios.I must say that the PCI-EX clock is set to 100 or 90 in both ways the cpu needs 1.4 to hit 4 ghz, i don`t leave it on auto because it doesn`t start at all at that frequency, that`s about it.
well then i guess i`ll have to clock it like it is. pana crapa:D
Sa dea domnu sa nu! :D
"sa dea sa nu dea" it won`t even clock to 3.6 on stock voltage so i guess it`s a piece of... candy :D
well i don`t have to bump it that far, at 1.28 i can enter windows with it at 3800 but it`s not stable,for 3,6 it nees about 1.25.
My Q809A348 doing now 9*450MHz@1.296V at load...! :)
what`s your default VID?
This is my little Q743A797. :)

P.s.: Air with thermalright IFX-14, case closed and ambient temp ~24 °C.
got my new cpu to Replace my Q9450 .

I think I'm definately going to buy another e8400 as my 4.0ghz vcore requirements are a bit disappointing (1.352 load). would i tbe best to buy at a local store or from newegg ?
local store depending on what there return policy is, newegg you got 7 days from invoice.
I finally got my E8400 stable at 9x450.
I was expecting worse from this batch, but I'm very happy so far with my results.

Pox,
by your temps in RealTemp, I'd say your voltage is a little too low. At 4050, mine idles around 27c realtemp. Also:
PLL 1.6
VTT 1.2
hiya ive got prob with my 8400. Ive got difference in temps on each cores... the difference isnt 2-5C but 17C! what i think couse probs with OC my chip. What can b the reason of this? Bad mounted water block?

The ambient for me is around 27-31c, my setup normally idles around 34c, yet one of my cores shows 26c...what this means is it's a stuck sensor on idle. If I run full load of prime95 or orthos, they are identical or within 1-2c of each other.
