Let's see how this goes :D

I have been messing with 24/7 overclock on my G0 and looks like 3.6Ghz is Prime stable at 1.36Vcore real.
Loving the G0 so far :D
Got my Q6600 "G0" Batch #: L721A814.
First off, DON'T UPGRADE TO BIOS 501 BETA! I was able to hit 400*9 on the bios that came with the board, 202. After the bios update it just kept on crashing.
I went back to 404 update, and hit 400*9, but it wasn't stable enough to do anything. I'm currently at 450*8, about to run prime, see how stress stable it it, but it's perfectly capable of basic tasks right now.

This is on a P5K Deluxe Wi-fi AP, with 2 x 1GB crucial ballistix, Tuniq tower cpu cooler, and a NZXT zero case with 8 case fans, and an 8800gts 640.
It's not stable in the least at that. I'll have to tweak some more. I'm just at 450*7 for the night, and it works great. priming for 5 minutes so far, i'll leave it all night.
Here's some reference information for running at stock speeds
during preliminary system testing / burn-in to establish a reference point
before I overclock it:

I got my g0 on his way, with L726A951, any one got this batch or week? If so any results? I saw just 1 from Pedro rocha, 4.1ghz with 1.58vcore so far, but unfortunately i wont using such high volts for 24/7 on air, so more like I want to know how much volts they need for 3.6-3.8 range ( or higher with moderate volts).
ok :yepp: ,will take a shot to BIOS setting.Quote:

495FSB can prime at blend over 11mins, and I stop it then try 500FSB :D
And BIOS version please. Thanks.Quote:

Thanks,

it is a P5K-Premium, BIOS: 204 as you can see it in my cpuz ;)Quote:

Here's my data so far:
L724A760
VID = 1.2875V
3.2GHz w/ +50mV - 8 hrs stable
3.3GHz w/ +62.5mv - 2 hrs prime stable.
3.4Ghz w/ +125mv - 8 hrs stable - 35° idle, 70° load 8 hrs
3.5GHz w/ +175mV - 6 mins prime crash... temps 75°-80°
3.5GHz w/ +200mV - 5 mins prime stable, no crash... temps ran away so i shut down (~90°C)
3.6 w/+200mV - 1 core fails prime 1-2mins in... i don't think i'll be going past 3.6 or +200mV unless i get better cooling.
*everything but 3.2 was just a quick test.. i'll revisit each speed and step up volts in smaller increments maybe get lower temps, for example 3.5GHz*
(temporarily solved my memory issues by pulling one stick... will look into that soon as i find my max usable cpu speed)

You have the same motherboard and exact same batch code on your q6600 as i do. Which bios are you using? Have you tinkered with DQ Calibration at all? It's my understanding that tweaking that setting can be beneficial for quad core overclocking. Glad to see you getting 3.2ghz stable at near stock volts. I would like to get 3.4 to 3.6 on modest volts though as i'm using air.Quote:

I may have a bad stick or something, or they just don't like my components. But I never had an issue using both sticks on w/ my E4300 @800Mhz, just my Q6600 (needed to pull one for memory stability).Quote:

man! getting a quadcore is tempting...
i'm surprised to see SOOO many different batches so quickly...
was it like this when conroe was originally released? i didn't join the party until week 27/28's were starting to be available retail
Still priming. 3.2ghz @ 1.31v :D I realize it's not nearly considered stable yet. Air cooled with Scythe Infinity(aka Mugen). So far so good.

i will make more tests later
:up:
Got mine late yesterday - and had to go out last night, so no major testing yet but I did get it started and up to speed late last night.
Q6600 L723A890 from Club-IT.
System is basically whats in my sig.
Vid = 1.3125v
Current Speed: 9 x 445 (4005mhz) at 1.45v Bios (1.43v real)
Stock Vapo cooling for the moment.
Don't know anything about stability yet (no time and now I'm at work) but I had no problems with the basics.
