At stock vcore, kentfield is fine, but once you start loading it up with vcore, things get out of hand.
I saw ~300 watt power draw on a Kentfiend overclock to 4.45ghz with a P5W DH Dlx, an ati x300 video card and 2gb of D9GMH w/ 2.45vdimm
This was at idle!
With stock vcore, it pulls closer to 100 with the same stuff at idle.
One thing people need to be aware of is that some boards have a bios bug when using Kentsfield. When you change the multiplier in the bios, only one of the dies sometimes recognizes the change. This is one reason why some boards have problems with high FSB. One die thinks it's running at x10, while the other thinks it's at x9. The P5B Dlx is one of the few boards that changes the multipliers correctly on both dies. VictorWang was the first to point out this bug.

The problem is not just limited to the board he was using.
burn baby burn!
i wonder if i put that cpu into my WC loop.. will i see steam bubbles coming up to the fillport line? tehe
melt that price of couple hundred $ silicone. haha
but boy. those new quads are clocking better then duos.
hasnt anyone noticed that?
Kentsfield clocks better than some Conroes, but not all. The problem when you start raising VCore is the heat generate will begin to slow down programs. Most people think when a CPU gets too hot, it will simply reboot or the motherboard will shut down. With Kentsfield, you can still run Windows with high VCore, but apps will be sluggish.
Probly these 2X850Watter will comfortably suffice for that beast of cpu + CF/SLI oc'd...
Just trying to cover all bases before switch to Quad...

I've got you all beat, I've seen 255 degrees on my E6700. ;)
That's one high temp man!!!
haha, I think most of u guys are mis-understood my meaning.
my point is ... same as Sierra and dumo, kentsfield can running/bare at a very high temp. asus probe shows the right Core Temp(p5w64/p5b-dl/ws pro).
btw, zalman 9500led is not good as u guys thought. in fact, it's really a bad cooler with bad mounting design.
I've compared with Tower120 in same condition, about 15~20c loaded temp lower than 9500LED. :D
all we need for kentsfield, is a 50usd cooler and a 500w+ PSU.
QX6700+X1950XTX+RaptorX+2GB power consumption=200w when running quad-sp2004/3dmark with auto vocre/vgpu. :D:D
Vic maybe try a Scythe Infinity + high cfm fan
On D975XBX Badaxe r304
955XE @16x266fsb = 4266Mhz stock speeds at 1.5v bios vcore (1.441v bios)
Scythe Infinity with 120x25mm Thermaltake 81cfm 0.40AMP fan
Bios value => Intel Desktop Utilities value (windows)
CPU idle = 74C => 51C
System Zone 1 idle = 39C => 34C
System Zone 2 idle = 31C => 31C
Intel Desktop Utilities value (windows)
CPU load = 79-80C
System Zone 1 load = 41-42C
System Zone 2 load = 32-33C
Room temp = 25.4C
Idle

955XE @4266Mhz at 1.441v = ~220 watts
Vic, how does QX6700 B3 compare to 955XE in terms of heat/watts ?
It is hotter but are do you really expect Intel will include Tower/BT/Infinity as a boxed cooler? As long as your heatpipes are OK to touch it should be just fine :)
