Yes, 1.28vcore is the lowest vcore achieved for 3.6 prime stable.Quote:

4ghz prime stable on air is possible, just not easy :)Quote:

Haven't tweak GTLs, but I think that would be worthless given the starting point.
I have run my Q6600 @ 1.28vcore @ 3.6GHz and I don't even change any GTL settings. Many cause IDK what they do etc.Quote:

Have you tried to run Prime95 on 4 cores for 10hours?Quote:

Seriously at least run MORE THAN ONE THREAD of Super PI...
Nah i don't want to run at 3.6GHz for 24/7 but i'm think it would work.Quote:

I dont think i could sleep with a 3000rpm fan in my room either man.
hmm. i have GTL setting i have never played with them. well i m trying to play with them but cores 2 4 they keep failing primeQuote:

nice. how long did it run for? and is real temp set for 100TJ or 95?
OCCT stable in my system does not mean Prime95 stable. Try running at least 1h of Prime95 with the same settings. That would be stable ;)Quote:

@whe3ls: I ran OCCT for 1 hour and real temp by default set TJMax to 95.
this is the lowest i have been able to get so far

Yours has a lower VID that mine so it's understandable to know why you need less voltage to get up to 3.6Ghz. The lowest I can try on my Q6600 at 3.6Ghz is about 1.35V and it's not stable.
well this isnt stable yet it fails prime about 2 1/2 hours in. and that was @ 1.304 VCORE
Silly question here, can you find out what the VID is from the box?
nope. Realtemp or Coretemp.Quote:

What settings are you using for 3.825GHz?
VTT/PLL...etc?
I don't know about him but mine (same board as you and with my q6600) @ 3.840ghz (480fsb @ 8x 1.480vcore) VTT=1.56, PLL=1.6, NB=1.26 and GTL 0/2,1/3=0.675 (I think auto is okay too) just to get it fully prime stable (blend,small FFTs). Hope this help, good luck!Quote:

While you guys are talking about the min. voltage, I have a question that I am sure has been asked 1000 times before. I just can't find it using the search function:
What is the max vcore (as seen in windows) that you would run this cpu at 24/7 under water.
My q6600 does 3.8ghz at 1.55V under load and doesn't pass 65C. I plan on improving my water cooling setup soon.
