That's about my last results: 487 stable at 1.344v.

But you may want to watch out for the northbridge volt.

After killing my Maximus Formula, I tossed my X3350 into my P5E-VM HDMI.
Also did the pencil vdroop mod and now:
VCORE BIOS set 1.3875 V
Full load CPU-Z 1.344 V

much better than BIOS set 1.525 V for 1.3360 V heh.

Sold my first OEM X3350 for $400. Picked up a Retail version for $339.
This one Core 2 runs 16C hotter than the coolest core. Whereas the first OEM only had an 8C Spread over the 4 cores. Howver this run ones at 3.840 (480x8) with less VCore and FSB Vtt.

Tried this X3350 in a Maximus, a Rampage and a P5E3 Premium. Core 2 runs a lot hotter than the others. But it out performs the first X3350 which ran cooler. OH Well, the retail version has a 3 year warranty.

Here are my 3D Screen shots and ORB Link.

I have HDT-S1283 but I'm not sure I have it mounted too well as the heatpipes don't seem to warm up.

I got almost identical results... go figure, since I have an x3350 with a 1.20 vid on an ip35 pro:) What are your cpuvtt, mch, ichio, and ich?

btw, notice that our temps are very similar, too. I believe that graysky is using coretemp's 105c tjmax assumption instead of realtemp's 95c tjmax. Will verify with him and report back.

I've also got a X3350 in an IP35 pro and I have had SERIOUS issues getting it stable at anything over 450fsb. I've pushed voltages up much higher than what i needed for 3.56ghz and stability is still hard to come by at 3.6+

What program did you guys use to get that data dump you posted here?

What BIOS revision?

And has anyone tested 0401 RF and 1201 MF for 45nm Quad clocking enhancements?

The Asus Rampage Formula is the board to have is you want to OC to the Max a X3350 or any CPU. It has the most BIOS parameters that can be tweaked.

The P5E3 Premium runs into instability issues above 450FSB. I believe it is due to the Asus EPU Energy Savings Feature. Plus it does not have all of the Bios features that are within the Rampages BIOS.

And the Maximus ran into stability issues above 440FSB.

Thinking of picking up a FoxConn Blackops when they come out. Really want an X48 Mobo that uses DDR3 that can OC to at least 480FSB like the Rampage Formula. The P5E3 Premium wasn't the Mobo that could do that.

What the hell!!

My multiplier got stuck at 6 even though I forced it to 8 in BIOS.

I was playing around with my pencilled vDroop mod and bam! my computer rebooted (bad idea to do this live I guess haha), but I wanted to monitor how much my vCore was changing.

Cleaned it up, re-did it, and now my multi is stuck at 6 even though when I boot it shows up as 3.8 GHz :( 475x8, in Windows it's 475x6... argh!

Temperatures are still great too, and I put a fan over the MOSFETs in case it was throttling itself (much like my P5K-VM did before it exploded with a Q6600 in there).

EDIT:

I disabled TM2 and now it's 8x475. Weeeeird.

Disable EIST and co you will be dine if the board posts at 3.8Ghz you didn't have all energy saving features disabled... I got the inverse lol I set 11 multi and yet it only posted with 9x due to bios issues...

I am using bios 0401 now. I don't really see a change.
I tried to see if my overclock was still stable with a safe FSB VTT but nope.
Someone else succeeded to be stable at 3.8GHz with that voltage at 1.31V though so it's probably my chip.
It seems I could boot at 4GHz more easily with 0401...

This rig is a bit busy atm so I can't run stability tests for hours like before.
We need a new guinea pig ;)

I was able to get my 3.8 GHz back after disabling the thermal throttling, but something's unstable with my overclock.. When I checked my computer this morning it looked as if it was rebooted (fresh Windows desktop, no apps running). I'm -hoping- it was Windows auto-updates but I can't be certain.

This is nonsense, Maximus runs fine up to $75-480 or even higher with any other CPU than these Penryns and you can use Rampage BIOS in Maximus (not a surprise, they are exactly the same chipset).
It's time for ASUS to release a fix for Maximus or come forward and admit they simply screwed us and they don't give a *&^% about it anymore.

My P5E (Flashed to Rampage) still has 450Mhz FSB problems. What tricks can I try to get my X3360 over the FSB Limit?

I have the latest beta bios (308):cool:

Try 0401 on Rampage and see if FSB overclocking with 45nm Quads improved any?

Not true! Someone that I know has the same FSB problem with his Asus motherboard. He mailed to the bios department and they are testing right now what it could be. He received some beta bioses and Asus is very busy with testing and finding the problem.
