Here is my Q6600 which has been a headache can't get it stable at anything higher than 3.7ghz, it has a VID of 1.225 so I don't know. Did 3.6ghz @ 1.328 vcore 24/7 stable.

your lucky i wish i could get 3.6 stable but its not a big deal to me but I sitll would like to say I got it stable up to 3.8 or something like that
Mines plenty fast 3.36ghz anymore is just too much heat especially in summer here at least on air cooling. 3.6Ghz is just too much heat on air cooling for most chips, so wouldn't worry about it too much.
Mine hates 3.6ghz too... stuck at 3.5, 1.44V.
Wow meth, you're lurking here too?
I got a Q6600 too, high vid so I'm selling it asap lol.
Newer G0's are a pain.
edit: meth lol you got 10 posts here. damn. 20k+ in nvnews
I'm at mines fsb wall, which is 481MHz FSB. Damn shame too cause I can only run 3.37ghz on 7x multi. 8x multi is completely impossible with the clock speed resulting from it.
I got the same "dud" later batch chip as you, could only manage 3.4GHz @1.4v vcore (high temps), 3.2GHz needed 1.3v temps at full load running Intel Burn Test 61C~, Prime95 full load <50C~.
3.6GHz on air seems almost impossible with this chip needing above 1.5v and a top notch water cooling setup.
Hi!
I'm new on this forum so be gentle. ;)
I tried to overclock my Q6600 G0 (@3,9GHz 24/7, 1,44V) yesterday. I was using watercooling and the cooling was Provided By Finland. Here are some results:

I'm surprised that CPU ran successfully even 8M -test. I think I have to raise cpu freq and test just 1M ;)
Mem was @ 1150MHz 5.5.5.15. so it is easy to make better score @ SuperPi. Yesterday I just tried that how fast will this CPU go when I feed it with some voltage.
welcome lauri, nice results :up:Quote:

I've never given more than 1.630v (bios) 1.610v (real)......yet. Got the TRUE on here atm since I need a new waterblock :(
You can also use HYPER Pi from here http://discussions.hardwarecentral.c...d.php?t=179504 which will run 4x instances of Pi for you automatically, you decide 1M-32M as usual :)
^^ not really required....just for fun if you like Pi :)
Thanks :)Quote:

Thanks for the HYPER Pi, I believe it's going to be useful :yepp:
My watercooling loop:
Swiftech Apogee GTX (lapped), Swiftech MCP655-B, Alphacool 360mm rad with two Noctuas and one Nexus real silent.
im sitting at 3.8 1.55vcore all is well ip35-e board
Yeah I am sutck on 3.5 with 1.5v in BIOS but on CPUz shouws 1.46ish temps are not to bad with my highest ever seen is around 60C so I am kind of happy I would love 4Ghz just so I can say that but its plenty fast at 3.5Quote:

I'm waiting for tomorrow.. If it's cold enough, I'll try to reach 4,4GHz (suicide shot) :rocker:
Very nice work lauri_lr :clap:
What PLL and VTT did u use?
PLL/VTT was @ Auto, CPU GTL 0,630x.Quote:

I am running the Q6600 with 1.3 vid with Asus P5Q Pro (ket's m1501 bios), all I've done for 3.6ghz is raise vcore (1.45ish) and nb 1.2
everything else is on auto.... anyone can give me some hints/help for other settings to maybe lower vcore down a little? GTL? PLL/VTT?
I think this is not bad at all :)

My cooler is BigTyphoon. I set 1,2V for vNB which doesn't have a blower...
P.S. This is the same as with the better stable result of Phenom II 940 :(
It took me couple of tries but I finally got my G0 Q6600 back up to 3.6. I'm running it on air and had the CPU at 1.425v but I had to crank it up to 1.45v. I also had to crank up the NB to 1.55 from AUTO. It's amazing how running four sticks of RAMs, instead of two, can completely screw you over. :mad: It was a good learning experience though. :up: Once I get my WC setup up and running I'm going to see about tweaking those numbers though.
So my Striker Extreme is on its last breath here an I ordered a 750i FTW because it was only $139 from newegg after rebate. What kind of stable cpu speed can I expect from it on my Q6600 GO? If I can't get up to 3.6 within a couple days, I'm gonna put the new 750iFTW in my other Q6600B3 machine to replace its 680i and then look for yet another mobo for the Q6600GO. Probably a P5Q something or other. Open to suggestions, though.
From what I'v heard the 750i FTW can do 3.6GHz, but it has trouble doing any higher.
Here you go my 1.325v stable 3.6g GO Q6600, had some time to play with it today and see if I could do better. Doesn't need to much for volts, still more than I'd like to use for 24/7 use though.

chew*, nice results there. First I looked that you are playing when Q6600 is 4124MHz...
I was playing, thats only 9x450. When I get some time I will go for 500+ X 8 ;)Quote:
