my Q9450 (L812B028) does 3.6 at 1.39v OCCT stable
will run prime overnight
temps seem funny
at full load coretemp shows 72,63,64,60 and realtemp shows 59,49,54,50
Just recieved my Q9450. Still waiting on my P5e3 Premium...
Batch nr: L806B255
Anyone has a Q9450 from the same batch as mine ? :D

where can I get q9450 oem ? sorry for offtopic :)
oh my bad...!
when you say 'load' I assume you mean running small fft's in PRime 95 or OCCT correct? PLaying a game is not full load on the cores as most games out now most certainly do not balance our hte load on teh cores. Maybe thats why?
Mine Q9450 is a L813B"James Bond"
1.24v real 3.6G prime95 8hrs large fft
1.2625v cpu in bios

I just got my Q9450, Batch L811A851. Pack Date 5/02/08. VID 1.125 testing it right now. Also i think its a hard overclocker, but I'm going to do a burn in first. Its Idling hot at stock volts. 40C. Max temp on load is 62C right now.
I'm working on it right now. But the VID is 1.125 i think, But Its at 1.3325 in bios right now at 3.2Ghz, Currently in stress test using voltage 1.27. This thing is HOT at any voltage. I have no idea why. Core 1 is currently 70C, Core 2 is currently at 64C, Core 3/4 is at 67C. My Q6600 wasn't never this hot. Also the Chip idles hot too for some reason, its about 65F in my room right now. I don't get it. it should be running alot cooler then this.
Just picked up one from a local Microcenter. It's L812A528 with 5/5/08 pack date.
One odd thing though, there was also another one with 5/5/08 pack date, but older batch of L811A9xx
By the way, MC is still selling a Q9450 for $299
I got C1 stepping, I think there is a problem with C1 and my motherboard, I can't go above 430 so far. I gotta keep trying. The C1 stepping started to get worked on Bios in the 1004 bios for Maximus Extreme. I'm trying 1007, and 1101 right now. No luck. The CPU is still running hot. But Max Load temp has gone down about 2-4C.
Warboy you running coretemp or real temp fo rthat quad? Core tmep is 10C hot...
I haven't the balls to lap mine yet. I'm gonna wait to see if the Wolfdale degradation is really true or just a myth.
I'm dying to do it as currently under folding load my core temps range from 46c to 54c.
There is nothing wrong with those temps COB... though I agree any little bit can help!
Yip the average temp is fine, but the 8c difference between the coolest and warmest core is annoying.
I just got finished running some tests with my new Q9450 from MC yesterday. Packed 5/5/08, and it's running hot too, with a 10 degree difference between the hottest and coolest cores. Don't remember the batch number right now, but the VID was 1.125. Maybe this latest batch is somewhat of a bad run?

Yip I did, and the sensors were fine :)
I think the stuck sensor thing only happens @ load - not when idle, so it should be easy to tell. Mine are also stuck on idle. After lapping difference between cores @ load is around 4-5 degrees.
