You have 4 cores heating up the IHS with the Q6600 vs the 2 with the E8600. That is why you have such a variance.Quote:

No.... Your missing the point. Your measuring the temps from the IHS with the laser right? The quad core will heat the IHS more than the dual core from the same internal temp. Real temp reads from the internal sensor, not the IHS. If a dual core and quad core read the same temps per the internal sensor, the IHS will be much hotter on the quad core. quad core heats the IHS so much more than the dual core that you get closer to the same reading from your laser.
I recieved my E8600 batch number Q820A405 from the egg. Had high hope for it but this joker runs hot Just like a few other people have posted. Sitting here idle @4.25Ghz im at 54c on my cores. Primed for 15 mins she is over 80c. I noticed someone has some e8600's up for acution on ebay batch number Q820A593 (used) so i went ahead and bought one i sure hope it is better If anything it cant be any worse. I just wonder why he has so many of these used. There is 4 more up for auction right now. Anyways maybe i will get lucky this time. If anyone running one of these batch Q820A593 Could you please post some of your temp and overclock results. The only thing i can find on that batch number is in japanese. 640FSB is all i could make out ...... Thanks and remember if you smell smoke you might have just overclocked a bit too far
ASUS Rampage Extreme ~ E8600 ~ ASUS HD4870~ 2x1Gb OCZ Flex 1600Mhz ~2x150Gb WD Raptors ~ Antec 1200 ~ 37inch Jvc 1080p HDTV
Ah yeah i was tired last night and never thought of that as the two cores won't heat the cap up as much as the quad-cores will. So it makes sense now i am awake again and having my coffee.... :)Quote:

And,does it?
I have a Q820A405 from the egg as well. I idle at 30c with 1.39v and Small FFT i hit 65c. Cooling with a TRUE/Washer Mod. Are you sure you have a good mount?Quote:

Very nice 24/7 clocks :yepp:
kitfit1 .. Nice OC.
What was the Max temps it reached running Orthos, 75C-80C?
:D no, -23c. Have a look at my sig.Quote:

I was messing around this morning trying to find the lowest volts i can run this at still had it set fairly high from trying to get 4500mhz stable. Right now i have a 1.24 Vcore set ( failed prime 95) but my idle temp is 44 loaded 65. So i need to go back up with the Vcore. But i think im going to slap the quad back in and play with that till the new E8600 gets here
Wow Mach GT II ... where can i get this cooling at?Quote:

That's a rather straight line! Very nice.
were you using a HSF on the cooler cpu?Quote:

Point is many can do what he has done as it is OCCT test stability which is OK for 1 hour testing that it does.
Either way its nice to dream that we could run 100% stable 24/7 at 4.5ghz using 1.28v.
Leeghoofd try and get him to do 5.0ghz at 1.35-1.40v and run that test again as i would be interested in that and impressed then.
If i am sounding sarcastic or rude ... its not mean't to be like that, but i want to see better GHZ at lower vcore 100% stable for at least 12 hours prime blend.
What can a person build for cooling for around $300.00-$400.00 and have say temps in the MINUS area or very close?
My chip is rubbish. LOL. It failed Prime after 2 hours at only 4.3GHz using 1.392V. That's garbage compared to most others. Still, it'll be OK at 4.25GHz for everyday use.
5ghz is totally out of the question on his cheap WC setup... temps are already spiking up to 60°C level... you guys just expect too much... 4.5Ghz is already nice at those volts... why you need 5ghz daily at a way too high voltage requirement for most and don't even think about the heat output... and most do 4.5 round 1.3-1.35 level looking at my own list... so 1.28 is a nice result to me...
Nilos is a gamer, does't even run prime for hours (my advice), he just uses OCCT and 3D benches (which he loves)... and daily usage is his stability test Beastnostro... funny you ask for 5Ghz stable as in your 8600 thread you started out at 4Ghz and moved up to 4.2 as minimum requirement...
verry nicely said LeeghoofdQuote:

me myself i'm good @ 4.6 with 1.38v i was hopin for 4.5 when i bought the cpu
i only prime for 1 hour max anything more is a waste for me
soon beastnostro gonna bump that thread to 4.5 when he gets there:rofl:
dee dont feel so bad i spent 300$ on my old e6850 that did 4.0 24/7
sorry for delay, mine is finally up and running... still didn't have time to tweak anything so results still at stock: batch Q820A604 - purchased from the egg on aug 27Quote:

I also tested with real temp with 100c tjunction and got the same resuts
please let me know if I forgot to post any important info :)
BeastNotro, you don't sound rude or sarcastic - you sound bitter.
That being said for $400 you could build a water chiller if you're crafty.
or get 1 of these for 400 bucks http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=200421
I for one agree with that statement. I only use my PC for gaming but I would wager most people (who are confident with their overclocks :p:) would say that the best method for testing your CPU is Prime95 for a minimum of 2 hours small fft's that puts the most stress on the cpu. Some people say 4-8 hours at least and that's the category I fall under. Let's face it, a 4-8 hour run while you're sleeping isn't going to hurt is it? In many of the forums I have seen you mostly see screenshots of Prime, second to that Othos and thirdly OCCT. That speaks volumes to me.Quote:

Maybe we should run all three one after the other for 2 hours each LOL. And even then whos to say that it is 100% stable. Up to the individual I guess.
Just my two cents fellas.
