The GPU just didn't want to clock like it usually does but anyway. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=11128533 (only did 830/2050/2500 instead of the usual 850/2100/2500:shrug:)

My successful overclock on air with a Zalman 9700NT. My idle temps are around 34 and my full load temps is about 60.
thinking of getting a q9650 and hoping for 4ghz
are the recent batches/weeks overclocking ok
Thanks
im pretty sure they will all do 4.0Ghz
i can safely guarantee 4.0Ghz and higher with the UD3P/UD3R boards
Thanks. :) From the looks of what is in your signature you wouldn't have any cooling problems with more volts.:up:
Thank you.:) The cooling is a custom watercooling system with a 240MM radiator. After 15-20 minutes of benching the liquid temperature gets high enough that it takes about a half hour of rest before it will run with any kind of stability. :rofl:
Thanks man. I learned a lot from your various posts in this section.:up:
seem to be having problems getting my Q9650 prime stable
it passes linpack at 4.05Ghz 450x9 @ 1.28 vcore
but core 2 fails prime within 2 minutes and ive tried going all the way up to 1.35v
NB and VTT at 1.36v
using a maximus ii formula
anyone got any suggestions?
thanks
Had my Q9650 disabled for a long time now.
I will hook it up tomorrow to get the 9.3 Super Pi back so you have some seconds to live for :up:. I didn't save the entire pi run because it was a lousy run and never thought it would beet the World Record.
And XS erased my post of last stable OC (IBT and Prime95) 4700Mhz 1.39-1.40vcore. Too bad had some good pointers there.
Here, no tweaks, this is on regular Win 7 OS that I used daily (no wazaa, fresh install etc etc).

Thanks, catching that is going to quite the challenge.:up:
I used the same clockspeed on a cut down XP and you still killed my time.:rofl:

How to get this to run at 5GHz..Hmm...
The laughable advanced memory timings are the difference between a very stable 4.85Ghz and a rather unstable 4.9Ghz. For 4.85Ghz i could use Performance Level 11 and much tighter timings all around.:up:Code:Robust Graphics Booster - FAST

Holy crap! Sick FSB for quads! Well done, mates !
Hey guys,
Inspired by thebluemeanie1 I decided to go for the 7 Gold Cups available for Q9650 hardware: CPU-Z, PiFast, SuperPi, SuperPi32m, wPrime32m, wPrime1024m and PCMark05. I got 6 out of 7 so I think it's an interesting read for Q9650 owners:
Q9650 - 6 Gold Cups in one Day (conquering the HWBot HOF)
Very very impressive times with clock speeds to match. The CPUz, SuperPi 1M, 32M and PiFast are completely untouchable.:shocked:(By me anyways)
Does going colder help with the FSB speed?
Once I saw your post I got right to reinstalling windows and running wPrime.;)
http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...prime1024M.jpg
Hey Bluemeanie I see you have some backups :up:
Well yeah those are still on the works I don't know what should I do to optimize wPrime, it's a new engine to me, I dunno how come my scores with hiegher ram speeds are lower, obviously I'm doing something wrong. I probably can get lower scores on Vista I only tried on Xp and W7 I would hate to format my PC right now...
The temps always helps but my SuperPi scores I did with water. wPrime1024m is a real cooling system test after it passes 80%!
I think I got the hang of it now:
http://i40.tinypic.com/33v16dh.jpg
Now I have to post 1024m.
Ah, very very nice.:clap:
You might want to try out Vista or 7. They seemed to perform quite a bit better than XP for me. Then again I'm not the one under 7.7 seconds.
Damn... nice work there. Maybe I could boot above 4.3 ghz if I tried giving it more than 1.41v but that is the highest I've ever gave it.
Nice results guys
Got my Q9650 two days ago, and the second it was out of the box, it got lapped :D
Nice and smooth, shiny surface to it, lapped my Tuniq Tower base as well.
P5Q Deluxe, 2005 BIOS
4 x 2GB Corsair TwinX PC8500 CAS 5's

Did i get a good one? :D

Figured I'd dump this in here. Summer has arrived and my apartment is very hot inside with no air conditioning so I have been workin on a "low voltage" overclock to keep temps and consumption down.
1.088v idle in CPU-Z, 1.076 load.

After 3 days of running P95 small fft for curing I believe I've lost another 1C of maximum temps. Ambient temperature is 66F (18.888C). I've achieved these temps using Prolimatech Megahalems with two Silverstone FM122s in push pull config and a careful application of Shin-Etsu X23-7783D. Very happy...I've got about 8-9C drop vs my old cpu cooler, Xigmatech S1284EE.
Running 4.310 40 min blend stable now...but when I push cpu higher and my ram past 1200Mhz Prime blend throws errors within 5-50 minute. I've tried various mch core / ref settings with Cpu Termination of 1.34 and 1.36V but so far no luck. Using 2.50A as memory strap multiplier...any ideas?
Hi guys, just ordered a Q9650 myself...
Just wondering, how are the VIDs and steppings on the new chips right now? What are you guys getting? And do they have the same correlation to overclockability like Kentsfield?
I would run ya ram at 1066mhz region Kai, this way you can drop a lower PL on the P5Q Dlx, thus increasing ram performance big time (might require some more Nb juice though).
Vcore wise your CPU seems very average. 4ghz at 1.288 is not bad, but not brilliant either. Anyway very nice power to mess with daily ( me sniffs with my E7400 :p )
I am running my Q9650 with 4x2GB of RAM so I guess I will keep with the 0803 bios for now. I lets me stay at 4GHz with my 1066 ram at 1112MHz.
Anyone have a good starting template for the UD3P motherboard clocked at 4050? That's all the overclock I'm going for since I just want something 24/7 stable on air. I just got this board today and don't know where to start. I upgraded from an Asus P5B-Deluxe so there are many new settings.
Thanks
I wouldn't jump that far if I were you. At most, I'd try 9x400 first... it's easy, and usually doable on stock voltage.
I was running @ 4050 with my P5B for the last few months. Just took 1.4 vCore with that board.
What vid is your chip?

With those settings the system failed IBT. From the template you stated a DRAM Voltage of only 1.9 so I left the timings at 5-5-5-15. From this post http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=203292 for my exact memory they used 2.0 volts to run 4-4-4-12 timings but I don't know how to change the MCH/DRAM Ref accordingly. Just ran prime and core 3 filed after 1 minute.
Wasnt sure on your ram, so either use your old ram settings or auto for now. What prime test did you run, blend, failed on 1024k or 8k?

I ran blend. Will try those settings and will report back in a little bit.
Thanks
Those settings seem much better. Still failing IBT but it's getting up around 90 C. Running Prime for around 30 min now without any errors.
So far running Prime my max temps are 73C.
What were your temps with the core-contact when you were at 4.4? I'm also using a core-contact and I'm at 73C at 4.05. :confused:
Could only use CCF at those speeds and Priming when I used an A/C blowing on it. And also make sure your CCF is mounted the way is supposed too I think the fan should be pointing the back of the mobo not sideways (NB). If you search this thread on my Name and Core Contact Freezer you'll see my temps on winter with tit at 1.37vcore and 4400 where topping 73oC-75oC.
The way I mounted on that pic was wrong, I had best results with the CCF mounted with the fan facing the back of the case and not sideways.
Mine is mounted sideways also. It won't fit pointed towards the back. However my case has a exhaust fan out the top so I wouldn't think it would matter.
Here is a pic of my setup.
http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9931/img3648oxv.jpg
Yea your going to need to do something about those temps before youll get a good clock. Those temps are pretty toasty for that find of voltage. If your cooler wont fit front to back id atleast get a better fan setup or skip the BS and go water. :up:
I also have a Zalman 9700, think there is any chance it would perform better. I'll have to look into a water setup, always been on air.
Just reached 6 hours prime stable. Will continue to let it run until tomorrow morning and see how it goes. However these are the same settings that failed IBT, but could be because of the added heat with IBT.
With your cooling the way it is now I wouldnt bother running IBT, its simply getting to hot to be stable with 90c temps. If it passes 8+ hours of prime blend id call it good and start fine tuning it to see what it really needs.
Nothing wrong with air, you just gotta do it right - I don't understand why you're into the 70s with that vcore. The Zalman is at least worth a try... I have one and when I was priming my Q9550 with 1.38 vcore the load temps never reached 55C. Are you using the correct tjmax value?
Well here is almost 15 hours prime stable. Yes, I am using the correct tjmax of 100C.

well already post it at the giga ud3p but would like to thank Jor3lBR , Hoss31 and thebluemeanie1 for the great help, i finally did the 4800+ bench i wanted it just needed more vcore
http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6748/spi15.jpg
Cheers all :up:
Most people here use 95C for tjmax - 100C is the default value in coretemp, but not necessarily the correct value. :p:Quote:

That info was publically disclosed by Intel months/year ago.
All Apps were updated ages ago for this info inc Everest/CoreTemp and RealTemp.
i always use 100c for tjmax.
Yes 100C is the figure released by intel which many people choose to ignore, for whatever reason - perhaps tjmax 95 gives more accurate readings, or perhaps they prefer to use the same value as that of the QX9650. I'm really puzzled by the 77C load temp you get because my chip, presumably lower binned (being a 9550), never reaches 60C with almost 1.4 vcore. :shrug:
Congrats on that 536x9 andressergio!!! Nice work :up:
Andressergio Is Very Good Men
That's Great FSB For Quad
What's Ur Cooling In High FSB??
Can U Take Shot Ur Rig And :) Maybe Be Mistake For Change Mobo To DFI GigaByte Is Best For Quad
Great job andressergio. I think you will make it to long 5Ghz before I do.

100% IBT stable. Reduced voltage to 1.3125v (in BIOS), still stable. Probably can reduce more.. going to try it tomorrow.
VID of 1.2750v.. L84xB stepping.
I hold the record for highest VID @ 1.2750v (1 week old CPU).
But I have learned it means nothing on newer 45nm CPU's, does 3GHZ @ 1.03v.
I have not mounted CPU correctly as ran out of good TIM and had use some rubbish stuff that was hard to work with and its applied badly (proper TIM is on route).
Mobo is an Asus Maximus II Formula Rev A2, the heat pipe has so far not being remounted with new/better TIM so although it runs cooler than some older batches it will no doubt be badly TIM'd.
I'm stopping for now at this due to better TIM on heat pipe may let me do more on 1 notch lower volts as 1 notch higher was needed from 470FSB to 475FSB (suspect heat makes it need more).
Ignore VCore etc for now all were set high for testing FSB so I know if it fails its due to FSB not overall MHZ etc.
I have tested it to 3.6GHZ and 4GHZ and will try find lowest voltages possible once new TIM applied.
All cooling fans are are 50% for testing so PC is quiet, bellow is idle but I have Primed/IntelBurnTest'd/MemTest/Vantage stressed it and it passes.

So it appears that I got a "bad" quad. If I try to lower the vcore any further down... it will fail IntelBurnTest. And the general conclusion here is that 4 GHz @ >1.28v = mediocre. Is this true?
Naa, I seen average of about 1.25v-1.28v for most on here.
The post the other day with 1.15v on air is exceptional.
Increase PLL Voltage and it should let you lower VCore, try 1.55v PLL for safe start.
Well too much PLL Voltage like VTT Voltage (FSB Termination Voltage) can kill a CPU.
Your Mobo has a default PLL Voltage of 1.50v, it turns Yellow at just above 1.60v (Text in Bios and LED on Mobo if you set it for PLL instead of VCore).
Set it to 1.55v which is very safe and try lower VCore.
I have read peeps saying different limits for safe PLL Voltage on these CPU's but 1.60v should be still ok.
I tried bumping the PLL to 1.60v, and I still couldn't lower the vcore without losing stability in IBT :(
Bummer must need the VCore then, PLL overall is for higher MHZ with lesser Voltage but you may be needing more VTT for your current FSB.
Also the GTL's are very important to stableness and you may be able to lower voltages then.
I had no luck with my Quad on this Mobo at even 400-425FSB till I set the NB GTL and I have found my CPU GTL's and NB GTL are stable at + values, the NB wont boot at - values.
With my above Voltages (ignoring VCore and PLL as not important to what I am talking about) I have set all 4 CPU GTL's and the NB GTL to +40.
I calculated this not guesswork, easy since both VTT and NB are set to same Voltage.
The P5Q Deluxe uses ratios instead of +/- values (ex: 0.630x, 0.670x) for GTL references.
So how would to guys recommend switching over to water? Any good complete setups, or build piece by piece?

as you have a high vid probably you'll need more vcore that any other chip but if temps are not so high (i mean on 24/7) not IBT then its ok...also its important the GTLS on the CPU and MCH so the VTT
But on a 1,25+ vid you will need mostly more vcore...

Hey guys, Long time No see.. How is everyone.
I Finally got a EP45.. time to see what this Q9650 can really do on a good board instead of my 750i.. lol.
Question, Does ANYONE have a Q9650 they'd like to Sell. I'm looking for a used Q9650 to buy, as I'd like to have another one. I might get a Q9550 since the E0's are now $219 New at the egg. but I want the Q9650.
Also, I might be buying one from Ebay, or another forum if I can find what I want. So I'm wondering if any of you guys like Napalm, and Andressergio, or others that have followed this thread from when it had 30 pages.. Could tell me from what they have seen to be the best batch #'s and VID's for the Q9650. I know almost all the 45nm Q9650's are good performers. but I've noticed that the lower VID ones clock higher, but run warmer, and the higher VID's still clock good, but run cooler. But this could be wrong..
Any info on Batch# and VID's for the Q9650's would be great. as I want to get another soon.
Check Deals thread: Q9550 for $170 @MicroCenter :up:
Nooooo don't... I got one of the newer E0s and it's nothing like what you see here - 1.4v for 4GHz and no less than 1.3v for 3.6GHz or I get blue screens and random restarts. :bs:Quote:

And 1.15v for 4GHz stable is just crazy, seriously :eek:
I know, I don't have a damn microcenter near me or I'd have got one already.. but thanks!
I know this belongs in the liquid cooling section however, the guys that are running q9650's on water... what is your setup? I have no idea what to order. Im on vacation next week. My plan is to order parts tomorrow and start on it this weekend if possible. I would like something good but not toooo expensive, around $300.00 tops. Is it even doable for that price?
I pieced my kit together but this kit is basically what im using and under 300.

Nice, thanks Hoss. is this where you ordered from?
