Will the 6850 oc to 4.0 be faster for video editing then the Q6600 oc to 3.0. All will be aircooled.
I think they will be very close to oneanother, the quad will be better on Mhz/rendering comparison if the software uses all the 4 quads to do the calculations on...
I have owned the 6850, never got 4ghz stable below 1.55 Volts, and it ran very hot for a GO : 65°C at 3.9Ghz on the cores, replaced it with a Q6600 at 3.6ghz, feels smoother in everything I do and temps are lower with the quads under WC, really funny to experience...
What were you able to oc the Q6600 to with air cooling for a semi low temp.
I've got my Q6600 @ 1.44-1.45 (can't remember what I set it to and no program can read the vcore right) at 400x9 and around 66 deg C at load (warmest core). S-Flex on the Ultra-120 eXtreme is spinning at ~1000-1100rpm. Didn't lap anything, using the provided TIM, and didn't even do the coin mod for the Ultra-120 (mine doesn't come with the plastic washer)Quote:

It's stable folding a few WUs with and without the room's AC unit though, so I'll leave it till I get around to tightening the HSF (even out the thermal load) and changing the TIM. If that isn't enough, guess I'll lap the HSF, CPU, or both
Quick question guys.
I ran my system through prime95 blend test and one of the cores popped an error after 5 and a half hour during the 192k test. Is this a problem with CPU or RAM? Settings as follows:
FSB:450
Multiplier: 8
Vcore: 1.4625 bios 1.44 actual
vcore reference: auto
Pll: 1.5
NB: 1.4
NB reference: auto
FSB termination: 1.3
SB: 1.05
SB reference: auto
6400 ballistix at 4-4-4-12-auto @ 900 @2.2V
Thanks for all the help.
First crack with this chip on stock Vapo LS, looks like my P5K3 is FSB limited but I'll work on it.
Max stability test session but not for 24/7 use

Hey guys,
I got my q6600 @ 3.6ghz running 1.31volts (cpu-z and speedfan).
My question is about my temps, cause speedfan is picking up the CPU @ 62
But the cores are only at 58.... **ive adjusted it to add the 15 degrees**, and this temp is confirmed by coretemp 0.95.4 which is reading the same.
Is my mobo cpu temp. sensor screwed???
thanks guys.
Prolly yes, I'm not claiming coretemp is 100% accurate but I always take that as a reference... cool voltage to go for 3.6ghz... you got a good one there.. we have similar issues with the Asus boards after a bios updates CPU temps rose 10 degrees after the bios update though coretemp and everest reported normal temps for the cores...
Probably correction via an upcoming bios update, I had F7 on my previous builds...

Hey Guys,
Q6600@ 3.6ghz (400 x 9)
Still o/c'in but this is current.
http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=281129
Running 1.34v / 1.33v loaded
--Tested Under Prime95--
Gigabyte P35-DS4 bios F9. Loadline calibration enabled from bios. Working like a charm :woot:

Just got the chip recently, went straight to 3.6Ghz / 1.45v, no luck.
After an hour of messing around, just settle for 3.46 for now. Tried 5 mins OCCT stable, here's a screenie of me just loading it up a bit.
1.6 vCore (BIOS), P5K SE, Generic old DDR2-667's, Bigwater 745 all fans @ 5v
L737B687, rather disappointing, was hoping at least 3.6 stable with sweet all voltage.
see that VID? out of all the chips i've tried, lower vids = better.
See screenshot

I decided to push my L737B to the limit tonight :)
Here is the max validation I could get... 4,2Ghz kept freezing while trying to validate :(
http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=289804
Cooling is a plain lapped TR Ultra-120 with a Silverstone fan at max speed :)
The voltage was set to 1,568V, but I did'nt try lower... For 4,2 GHz I tried up to 1,6V without any success...
My L739B is 3.6GHz@1.312v P95 Small FFT stable @ 450x8
But for Blend/Large FFT I need 1.33v to get it stable. Sounds strange to me ?

Found my 24/7: 4.1 @ 1.5v (real)
Q6600 L737B, Maximus Formula, Water cooled
idles around 35-38 and never tops 68c at full load (small ffts)
ran and hour of small ffts now I'm priming away on the blend test... 1 hour in
couldn't be happier :D

But they also run hotter don't they? My absolute limit seems to be 1.35V loaded with a TRUE because my temps will easily pass 70C during prime in a room that's 20C. But the good thing is mine can do 3.6GHz with 1.328V loaded (maybe less) so I'm happy with it.Quote:
