Anyone runing 450x9 on a Q9650 vid 1,25 ?? on a Maximus II ??
Can you post your settings plz ?
I posted my results on 445x9 i'm trying to lower vcore but seems that he needs it...i want to know what settings vtt, pll, GTLS are using for 450x9
Cheers :up:
Sergio
Alastor: Very good results especially with the.. 1.2 vcore
asus rampage extreme x48 is this a good board for q9650
Thanks for the info
Whats your ram running at?
I've just ordered the DFI-UT-P45 T3RS to play with the q9650 on, I will have some results for you all by early next week :)
and if its bad newegg gets another open box board to sell :D :up:
Ram stats are here:

what voltage is that at? man, those are some killer benches :up:
well the dfi is a beastly ram clocker, you wont find many better around for that....
NapalmV5; Come back. I miss the high clocks and the high voltages that go with them. I've not passed 4.5GHz yet but that's because I haven't pushed the voltages. When I get home over xmas I'll be moving into the garage and pushing the voltages through the roof. Hopefully I should see somewhere up near 4.7GHz or 4.8GHz.
Anyone have a good setup for the q9650 to make it stable @ 4.5ghz

Wow, awesome speeds at 486 FSB and 607 RAM! DFI Rocks :up:
Guys sorry but this is the last shout out for the Group Purchase, I will close the group on this weekend and get ready to order on Monday the 22nd.
I remember that after I closed the DFI group purchase several people where caught out of the loop by a day or so. Here's the original message:
Hi guys I'm organizing a Group Purchase for the complete MIPS waterblock kits for these boards (all the series). 4 blocks for US$ 185 + very small shipping fee that will be divided by 5 or 10 ppl (US$ 5 or less).
People who are interested please post here:

GOOD news guys :)
just updated to the beta bios on my P45 T3RS and ban the thing started shootin out clocks like it was its birthday. At one point I thought I killed 2 cores on my CPU but it turned out to be a glitch for the FSB I was at. Once the release version of the beta I am on now comes out its goin to be a MONSTER

8C ambient, I think I should raise my voltage lolol my cpu is Idling @ 14C :shocked:
3DM06 23999
I'm looking forwarding to getting home and back with my PC. I'll be running with Ambients around 0C which should give some more room for overclocking! Is anyone prime stable at 4.5GHz?
Well I just got and installed some Corsair Dom's the 2x2GB 1066 MHz kit. as I think my G-skill's were holding me back on my Divider. and today i am going to FINALLY install my PSU. if you all remember a good long while back I ordered the PCP&C 750w Quad so I could push my OC. and I've yet to install the new PSU. I'm doing it today. so all should be good. and shortly after I install it I'll let you all know what my new highest OC is with the new PSU, and the new RAM.
results to come by end of the day hopefully. ;)
So far so good, I just finished installing my 750w PCP&C and all is well so far.
Napalm was right, my old PSU was seriously what was causing my OC's to fail. as right now I'm currently at a lower voltage then I used to use and I'm rock solid.
Currently running Prime95 in Blend mode, with a 5:6 divider, 4.0 Ghz on the CPU with 1.304v and 1.288v on Prime Load.. with Prime full load temps of 45 40 40 41... on air. HELL YA. before with my old PSU I used to fail within minutes at this voltage. and I've not been running for just over 25 minutes without a problem.
He was right, the HX520 just wasn't enough for my Quad at 4.0 Ghz and all my stuff, and my GTX260 all on that 520 wasn't enough. but now it's ALL good. I'm way exited.
I'll clock this baby higher later on tonight.
Interesting stuff. Perhaps my Purepower 680w PSU is also holding me back? I really hope not, cause I can't afford to upgrade it! I'm awaiting further results xguntherc. Let's see the right (or should that be wrong?!) side of 4.5GHz.
xguntherc...what voltage values does the new PSU show using a digital volt meter (if you have one) ?
I need to get one.. I don't know what they are. I can load up Everest and check though..
and I'll get results in the next day or 2.. I've been a little busy lately.
It's good to be home and at my PC instead of my crap laptop! In order to try and push upwards I'm now stable at 480*9. Temps are kind of high (80C load), but ambients are pretty high inside the house thanks to the heating. I also managed to see 500*9 for the first time, but obviously it wasn't prime stable. I think I'm getting close to the limits of Air for this chip as I can't keep pushing the temps up. Perhaps if I move the rig into the garage I can continue to feed it!
Tonight, or tomorrow I'll try oc'n a little more. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
This processor rocks (thanks Napalm):
Hooked up yesterday, installed Windows 10 min ago and without any adjustments whatsoever:

Quad 5000Mhz++ Club :D:D:D:D
snap!! :clap: congratz!!
welcome.. good to have you by my side Jor3lBR :toast:
lifes just better @ 5ghz.. huh :D
I have been busy getting my 2 4870 X2 cards setup and working that I haven't had the time to go and finish oc'ing my cpu. It is nice to see some great oc's here. I currently have my cpu voltage set to 1.3 in the bios for a reading of 1.28 with vdroop control enabled. I was hoping to settle around 4.3-4.5GHz but I don't know if I will make it. I am going to try taking my voltage up to a max of 1.34 and see how that does. I will post the results.
andressergio
Fantastic chip! Unbelievable quad FSB !
whoa 566x9 beautifo 5094mhz WR go go Jor3lBR !
set fsb:ram 1:1 and take it even higher !
Incredible overclock. A full list of voltages would be great! I'm very, very impressed.
Damn... thats crazy. Nice work man.
you said thanks Napalm. did you get that Q9650 from him? was it one of Napalms?
Nice work Sir. I want a new Motherboard now. but I have no clue what to get... Anyways I've been busy with x-mas, and I got an alarm added to my Truck. (Since it was broken into and ALL of my stuff stolen) not sure if I mentioned that or not. they got cd player, sub, amp, 80GB ipod, Bluetooth headset, my coffee mug. all the goods. BASTARDS!
Anyways I installed a nice 1 mile distance 2 way alarm in my truck and put push pins on all 4 doors, and the hood so if any are open it will sound. and a few other cool things.
I'm not in process of getting a new system and stereo installed. So as soon as I'm done by the end of this week or so I'm planning. I'll make sure I take this Quad as high as I can. I'm almost done with stereo, When I am I'll OC all i can.
Nice work there Jor
Someone has mentioned this in a post before and I guess my eyes are blurring from reading because I can't seem to find the post now. What is the max 24/7 voltage that would be recommened on the vcore for the Q9650? I am wanting to get the best oc that I can get that is capable of running 24/7. Right now I am at 4050MHz with the voltage in the bios at 1.3 and the reading at 1.28.
if you want a ballpark for an average 24/7 max Vcore, I would say its about 1.45v, but it can go much higher or a bit lower depending on the cooling you have. :2cents:
Yep a ballpark figure is what I am looking for. I know it isn't exact but some guidelines are good to have.
WOW, those are some great numbers, i should have my rig back up this weekend and i am shooting for that club....
Freq : 4815.23 MHz (535.03 * 9) on air soo....
Outside air and antifreeze should make the diff........... :surf:
i have finally got around to turning up the volts on one of my psu's, its an ocz 600sxs, the 12 volts were at 11.89 i opened it up and found a screw to turn (or whatever its called) got the volts upto 12.55 now, just a note to everybody make sure the power core is out and the pc it turned off before putting the cover back on the psu, thats the 4th time i've been electricuted in my life, im too shakey to do anymore tonight..herhehe miught try overclocking 2morrow, i really want to bring the volts up on my corsair hx1000, i'll have to see if it can be done easy, i know that the thermaltake 750 dosnt have a screw.
Andrew
thats not my q9650.. i think jors the same batch/vid.. actually a bunch of us have the same batch/vid.. leet q9650 brotherhood lol
- like i have said before.. my q9650 aint no golden q9650
- higher v12 can only do so much.. if the chipset/mobo is stubborn no v12 will save it
- please handle psus with care/common sense.. its best not to open up and mess around if not familiar with dangers glued to psus
- x48 has no savior just like its older bro x38: worst chipsets ever made by intel.. then again intel do a many things intentionally..
even p35 walks all over x38/x48
- p45+q9650 is the right path.. and frankly the best p45 are the ep45s :toast:
All of what you said above is very true napalm, but I want to know if you have done any "stability" clocking of your q9650. my experience with many manufacturers (gigabyte and asus in particular) is that they claim the frequency crown but their stability is truly terrible. DFI has never failed me in this area though...
Napalm primed @ 4.5Ghz earlier in this thread somewhere.
Awesome 5Ghz Q9650 :clap:
well it's not the A.. it's the 1.2125 that makes it great.. i sure WISH my Q9650 was somwhere in that part.. Meh, oh well. I can't complain.
the 1.2000vid runs more than 10 C hotter than both the 1.2125 and 1.2500
as always: luck of the draw
So question for everyone. I know you guys aren't fans on eVGA Motherboards.. more so the 7 series. but I have a chance tonight to get the eVGA, or XFX 790i SLI, not the FTW, or the ULTRA.. but the 790i SLI for $99.00 and then it has a mail in rebate. so it will end up being like $50 dollars or so, but for now that's $99 dollars for a 790i. thats pretty damn sweet.
So how much better would the 790i SLI be over my current 750i FTW. other than the TRI-SLI that I don't care for. what would I benifit. I'd have to get DDR3 Ram. would it overclock my Q9650 farther than my 750i can? although I've not even found it's limit yet on this board. I still need to do that also. lol.
Just thought I'd ask everyone's opinion there. as thats a GREAT deal for that board. it's still a good board isn't it.
I wouldn't use an nvidia board if they paid me $50....
I HAVE read all posts and I can tell you LOVE Nvidia.
I was the same (still am for GPU's) but for a long time now Nvidia are crap for Mobo Chipsets because they sat on their hands after very good NF2/3/4, NF5 was just ok and NF6 was a total POS and 780 is a total POS and the 790 is again just ok.
You do not need DDR3 bandwidth for a C2D CPU, total waste of time and money.
You need to put that POS of a Mobo in the bin and get a Intel P45 IMO (I have had the 680 and 780 POS's).
You have all very good parts apart from you Mobo, its a total waste and shame to fit a 45nm Quad to it, infact they do not even run that well on 780 and ain't supported on 680.
I do not understand why you defend it so much, its a POS and I at least can say I have owned both 6000 and 7(8)00 POS's.
If you got a P45 you would in about 1 weeks time after you get used to the multiple different Bios settings NEVER LOOK BACK and wonder how you can hit 500+FSB (2000QP, yes even on a 45nm Quad) with hardly any voltage increase to various Mobo Components.
TRI SLI is also stupid and a waste of time and money, you can for now game better on 1 faster GPU as SLI/Crossfire is not supported in all games, 2009 will still be about 1 very fast GPU (soon to be released).
I guess it depends on whether or not you get a good board. I had a 680i mobo and it was fantastic with my Q6600. Right I just got my Q9650 up 4.1GHz(9x456) with cpuz and everest showing the vcore at 1.296. The temps are great. Priming all 4 cores the temps don't go above 53C. I am hoping to try to reach at least 4.3GHz for 24/7 operation.
