so you set both lanes to -45. on my board it suggests that the second lane be set to 0.670 and first lane 0.630. So I'm unsure as to set both of them to equal values, ie both 0.625, or decrease the same amount from each lane, ie 0.625 and 0.665

Just a heads up on a E8600 Batch Q820A963
VID: 1.25V
24/7 Stable 4.5GHz 1.344V
http://users.otenet.gr/~tardari/PICS/E8600.jpg
Has anyone tried the 828XXXX batch???
If you look at the first posts you ll see that many people use the Q822A435 batch.
No, I am talking about the 828 batch, which is new and no one has recorded yet any performance test.Quote:

lower level brothers like the E8400 & E8500..I just picked up a E8400 EO batch #Q820A832
for $149.99 at Micro Center that's in the States:)
@JoeBar
Good Oc brother I know your gonna work with your Voltage some more to try
and lower it as much as you can to get another Good Oc..
Thanks man. :)Quote:

However for a 8400 E0 @ 4.5ghz i think that it's pretty descent vcore. I have a 8400 C0 with a P5E on my HTPC which needs 1.37v @ 4.0ghz.
Temps also aren't a problem due to wc'ing. I got up to 60-61'C full load with 23'C room temp.
Your right things are very picking on these stabling test and we try not toQuote:

when it comes to Oc'ing..i know the E8400 is at 1.362v Limit but..I believe
alittle bit more can't hurt to much just not to hold it there for long period of
time..
Pretty good? That's damn good, a great chip:up:Quote:

I haven't seen the prices drop much on the 8600's yet, but the 8400 EO's are certainly a better value IMHO. The 10x multi is fun to play with, but for my best benches and 24/7 settings I don't use it anyway, except for the 4700MHz CPU-Z screenshot, which wasn't any where near stable.Quote:

Picked an E8600 up last night and got 4GHz on stock voltage with a low noise fan running at 900RPM
E8600 Q820A606 Lappe Watercooling whit 3870x2 vmod =1.4v in same sys
ASUS P5Q Deluxe 1406 Slic mod bios
2x1GB Cellshock PC8000 CL4
Got an E8600 1.10VID according to Realtemp. Batch will follow because I'm at work now.
This thing gets HOT HOT HOT. It's absolutely uncontrollable on air. And that's a real pity because I sold my watercooling gear because I decided that a nice and small Lian Li PC-V350B would be a good idea for my daily system. But the way it is now I'm not satisfied ofcourse. Cooler is a Scythe Zipang 14cm with stock 1000rpm fan.
Currently I'm at 10*401 @ 1.25v loaded. Higher is absolutely out of the question as this is hitting 80C in realtemp. :eek:
Motherboard is a P5E-VM HDMI, which should be a good enough clocker fsb wise but is letting me down on the memory front. I'm forced to use AUTO settings on both the mem divider and the NB strap, or else it wont boot most of the time. PL is set to 9 btw. BIOS was upgraded to one of the latest.
What do you suggest I do about this mess I got myself in? Hitting myself in the head for getting rid of my PA120.3, Fuzion and 18w DDC is not what I would like to hear. ;)
My old E8600 E0 with VID 1.1625v was the same .... ran hot!Quote:

With Wolfdale, I have found (with E8600/E7200 and E5200) that the higher VID's are definately running cooler and therefore are better for air cooling.
Getting rid of it is not an option for me. These chips are gems when you give them the cooling they need, which I will do one way or another. I'll keep it for an LN2 run anyway.Quote:

Looking back, I'm wondering if I didnt take the VID when speedstep reduced the frequency. 1.10 looks way too low even for this hothead.

that's kinda slow need get a faster fan if not already got 1 :yepp:
I just got my 8600 installed and so far it looks good. Its a 1.26vid 7/17/08 PD 820A324 on a P5K prem on its own water loop which booted right up at 4500 at 1.32v.:D Testing begins now, I will post more later.

Ok so far I have been running fine at 4600mhz at 1.368v benchin without issue so I cranked it up a bit to test a quick max, no Orthos or Prime just yet. Just by luck I also lost one good stick of my Ballistix so I had to switch over to either my Teamgroup or Corsair Dom backup so I took the Teamgroup and have not really played with the timings yet though its solid enough at 5G at 1.642v with ram at 668 5-5-5-15 to play. This chip is on its own PA 120.3 loop with a cold air feed so temps never even got beyond the 40s. I just got in my new EK Nickel plated block but no 280GTX yet so I only have one 8800 on water which is ah but this chip is certainly faster then my CO 8400 which maxed at 4900. Cinebench R10 at 5G was 10.710, sorry no pic of that though my Quad system on the left at 3600 kills it anyway at 14,000. I will run it to hell and back and post up some better shots by this weekend but so far Im all smiles.:D here is a quick run of 3dm06 at 5G with my 8800 on water. http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=8934805
does the newer batch of e8600 can do at good overclocking? because i plan to upgrade to that core for gaming :D
In generally in does better, my best OC 5.3Ghz on water my chip, 4,5 stable 1.42 , my 8500 C0 Did 4200 at over 1.45 stable, and by the look of all here, the 8600 does better, but i dont think you have to get a 8600 just couse you want gaming, 4,2ghz are more then enough for any gaming rig, get yourself a better grahic instead :)
Here is what I got so far still testing
