Has anyone tried using a quad core in current 965 chipset boards?
What would be the advantage going to an xeon compared to a Q6600 ?Quote:

mines running just nice at 9x401 fsb with 1.45 vcore ..I removed my vdroop mod before i insatalled the cpu. and it seems ok at 3.6ghz i wont push it any harder untill i recieve my chill control back as im just relying on the sensor on the mother board for evap temps..Asus probe and speed fan my temps are stuck on -2c it dosnt change..i dont know why but i would like it fixed..E6600 never had this problem..
anyone know easiest way to get a image to 200 kb without cutting the crap out of it ?
so with vapochill u can only get 3.6GHz??
and how come u only have 50% .. load ... try 4 x SP2004 and assign them to each cores ... not 2 orthos

so im hopeing 4ghz..but not untill i have my chill control back.
im blind atm what i see temp wise is only Gosple.
orthos you need 2 x orthos running for 100 % load..and yes i will run 4x sp004 just give me a chance i have had cpu 2 days...
boy u ask alot of questions...
did i answer them correctly :slapass:
i cant handle anymore than 1 question heeh 2 blew me away rofl
Wow thats awesome! nice one.Quote:

can someone just answer the question as to whether you can lower the multi with an XBX2?
i dont wana run my memory at anything other than 1:1
also, virtualrain, i love your avatar. who is that?
If thats 9x401 from bios youd be better of with 9x400.Quote:

Better place to ask the question is the BadAxe2 thread. At least you'll likely get more responses.
no you can not adjust the multiplier. at least i haven't been able to.
i had no problem running the ram at 5:4 or 3:2.
Was there / is there, a QX6600. It seems like either there was at least engineering samples...

listening in - considering Q6600/QX6700 when the next price cut sets in :slobber:
any specific steppings to look for?
Don't expect any price cuts on any of the "X" series processors...

Also another thing, no problems at all with 4gb 4x1gb of memory and 400fsb so far with initial testing with my old Asus P5B Deluxe. :)
Well, just hoping.. :DQuote:

Despite the mild Q2’2007 price cuts, Intel plans to aggressively cut prices on its complete lineup in Q3’2007, with the exception of the recently launched Core 2 Extreme QX6800.
Hope the QX6700 wont be totally phased out by then :(
IIRC, B0 ES were fully unlocked

i think the high end of the strapp is to much for system to handle ??
Try raising NB voltage.

Mine does something similar. BIOS reports my Q6600 at 3.2Ghz, when it's only at 8x360.Quote:

The bad axe 2 will not allow you to adjust multis on any chip that is locked.Quote:

Most other boards will allow you to lower the multi and go for a higher FSB.
Asus P5B-DLX 340x9 stock vcoreQuote:

Looks like about 3077 ppd with P2608's 13 minutes per frame per vm.
