those are all very nice overclocks yall !! with I7 out thier are some very good deals floating around now
got my eye out for a good 8600 EO :D

Depends on if..I get a good batch#:clap:
Just picked this up the other day. E8500 Q827A658
Primed all day at 9.5x440, just kicked it up to 9.5x445. Half hour into it, looking pretty decent so far.
EDIT: Almost 4 hours, I'm going to fold on it for a few days at these settings.
I've started exploring with +0.200v vcore.
yowzers that is a nice chip
OMG! polroger that is one awesome cpu! keep pushing
PolRoger killer chip man ! with some good ram that sucker will do 5.0
Thanks guys.
I also did some initial testing with +0.250v vcore which runs ~1.424v idle to ~1.400v load. I'm able to get into windows and do some superpi at 533x9 but it wasn't prime stable. This chip runs hotter than my 1.250 VID 8600 with prime temps hitting in the lower 60C's with higher vcore. I think I'm going to put this chip on my DFI UT P45... it has better BIOS voltage increments which will help in getting 533x9 stable.
nice one gurusan. i wish i could get mine over 4400.still no luck
It depends on the chip but on air it's pretty difficult... ;)Quote:

and btw relative to yalls how does my temp look? im on water and maybe im just expecting to much but the temps look alittle on the high side...

A little update. Every kick up in speed now takes a big jump in voltage. 4.4 might be in reach, but I don't know about 4.5.
Hello all, my first post..here we go :cool:
E8400 FPO A807A269.
Memorii: Geil ultra @ 890mhz 5-5-5-15
Gigabyte GA-P35-S3
Normal settings:
http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/6460/vidxe1.jpg
E8400 @ 4000Mhz Vcore 1.216 load and 1.232 Idle
http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/273...minorthtp3.jpg
E8400 @ 4000Mhz Vcore 1.232 load si 1.248 Idle
http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/408...horthosmk6.jpg
Average temps are 75C, they got higher when my Tuniq Tower was not to full power and had ~28C in my room.
Linpack, Vcore 1.248 idle and 1.232 full load
http://img361.imageshack.us/img361/1...linpacknu2.jpg
I can boot Vista having 1.20 idle vcore and 1.184 load (but not stable in orthos).
What do you think guys?
Should I be worried about the vcore of 1.248 idle and 1.232 load?
Thanks
@ joebar, my air set up is very cool.using air conditioned air, at 4400 temps never exeed 46-48c.ican prime for hours at 4400 but as soon as try to go to say 4411,prime fails after about 5 minutes-temps still only 47c.thishappens using different multipliers still no luck.but ill keep trying
My ram is at 1164mhz right now, 5,5,5,15. 4x1gb OCZ SLI 8500s..they can do 1200mhz on 2.19V actualQuote:

I got a Q828A409 last week and have been playing around.
Anyone else running these on a 780i MB? Looking for better voltage settings for NB/SB, FSB, HTT.

.9500 is a low VID chip and it looks like it runs hot. Are your load temps 75C with LinPack or with Prime at 445x9 /1.248v idle? Is 445x9 stable at 1.232v idle?Quote:

Having 1.232v idle is stable with Orthos but with Linpack not quite.
Note: It is C0 stepping
I was missing some of the screen shots when I first viewed you post. I now see that some of your CoreTemps show a 1.1625 VID... I don't think that 1.248v is too much but those temps... that 10 hour orthos run showed peak temps as high as 82C/84C... your chip seems to run pretty hot.Quote:

Hi guys, my E8500 just arrived an hour ago. I specifically bought the E0 stepping (who wouldn't lol) and I am very impressed by this thing so far. This is my third boot (once I figured how to enable the .5 multi) and I haven't even begun to tweak the system yet.
Motherboard: EVGA 680i AR
CPU batch: Q820A916
FSB: 1896MHz (474MHz)
Memory: OCZ ReaperX PC-6400 @ 948MHz 5-5-4-18 2T
Vcore in BIOS: 1.425
Vcore in CPU (idle) 1.4v
http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/m...ys/4500MHz.png
I don't like this voltage for everyday use but I may be able to tweak it.
Having this CPU in my gaming motherboard when I have a Maximus Formula boxed behind me is a bit irritating lol :P
1.4v is fine for 24/7 use...heck...1.45v is fine in my book
nvm i'm an idiot.
I thought people have had 45nm chips die on them at just over 1.4v? I reckon I could get it stable at 1.4v but the FSB is another thing... I'll have to try some stuff first.
What's the program of choice for these chips - Orthos or Prime95? I'm not interested in IBT :)
I've ran Orthos again (1.248v idle, 1.232 load) and never got past the 75C.Quote:

If I lower to 1.232v idle and 1.216v load I'll get quite lower temps.
What do you think max 75C in load sounds "safe" (or be in the safe side)?
