Nice VID... :up: so was this screenshot taken when all 4 cores were fully loaded and none of them was idle? Some CoreTemp versions would show dynamic VID states so their values might depend on the load.Quote:

that was at idle i can check it again tonight underload and see what it says. i do have it now running 3.0ghz small oc for now being new and all. leave it there for 24hr and in the morning i will bump it up to 3.2ghz i did notice all my settings are still in auto but with the little OC, underload the vcore has dropped from 1.210v to 1.185v is this normal? iknow of vdroooop with these gigabyte boards i had t oset my E8400 to like 1.365v and it would drop to like 1.265v. but i thought taht was a wolfdale thing???
Got this one today its on a crappy DS3 P35 motherboard I had laying around for crunching, air cooling, and does not seem to want to go over 440 on this board, it is batch L844B610.

I almost missed the bus with my results at 3.5Ghz's on a old P35 board:up:
Well my Results are in on this Old Board p35c I'm kinda glad kept it around for a backup board...I wanted to check it first to see what it would do, nothing added all at auto setting running 64 bit Xp Pro Tests where done on External case was not included...lol nexts week its the I45 turn to see it act with the Quad Jumper...Pics to follow

all said and done the Q9550 is back in the box resting waiting on
the next test with I45 hoping to do well:)
Have Fun
Building:)
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...b/37ghzIBT.png
took it up again.
vcore in bios set at1.275v actuall during stressing 1.18-1.232v so still very love on vcore plenty of room for more when needed.
pretty low vidders there :) Have fun, both of you :up:
I got a couple of them, going to take the E8600 off of one as soon as I get time and stick the Q9550 in there... :DQuote:

Thank you monza.
well i tried it at 4.0===no go
tried it at 3.83======no go
back at 3.7ghz just fine. my mem cant handle 902mhz at 3.83ghz it would load windows but as soon as i tried to stress test it, it would fail and shut down.
so in due time i will be getting me some 1066 mem.
I just got that same batch number today but can't try it out until Thursday. How did you do?Quote:

that combo you got there id say you will be able to get 4.0 out of it easy. thats if you have some good 1066 mem. i cant go no higher cause of my ddr2 800 mem cant run any higher than 880mhz
that I45 T-power board should serve you well with this chip. a friend of mine here got the same one and he has the I45 board also and has had it up to 3.9ghz stable. but he has 1066 mem too.
My memory is rated to 1100MHz and I have run it there with 5-5-5-15 timings. It does take 2.4V to do it though (which is what OCZ specifies and warranties :-)Quote:

I did find that I could OC a Q6600 better on the P5Q-Pro than on the I45 and I attribute that to better power regulation.
I am tempted to move the P5Q-Pro over to this machine to use with the 9550 but it is watercooled right now so putting back the NB heatsink and all the hassles probably aren't worth it. I'll see what I can do with the I45. I was able to get one of my Q6600's to 450X8=3.6GHz on the I45 but it took 1.44V to do it and the Vendetta 2 struggles to keep the cores under 60C. I have an E8400 and E8200 in other machines but I don't aggressively OC them (3.6GHz) since I try to keep the Vcore below 1.375V on those 45nm chips.
I think that I will do the same with this Q9550... try to limit Vcore to about 1.35V +/-.
Once I have some results I will post them back in this thread so we can see how two chips from the same batch compare.
:D
you wont have any problem keeping the vcore down on this chip. 1.365v you shouldnt see unless your trying to get it to 5.0ghz..lol you will be happy with this chip very low vid on it.
letme ask you about the OCZ Vendetta 2 you have. you asy your haven heating issues with it?
if you look at some of my recent post it shows the temps in there somewhere look at them and see if they are close to what you are getting.. i think the vendetta is doing a great job for me. im running at 3.7ghz now and on my E8400 i had it at 3.4ghz and had the same temps aor a little higher with the artic cooler freezer 7 pro
that will be good. try this try that thing..im still learning this stuff so any info is great for me.. and if i can help out any thats a plus for all..lmaoQuote:

Thanks for that. My philosophy on OC is to find the edges of what can be achieved and then balance that with what I consider a reasonable 24/7 operating voltage/temperature. So I "may" get up to 1.35V just to see how high I can OC but this is not on my watercooled rig so temps will be my limiting factor I think.Quote:

I also lapped the Q6600 that it was sitting on and used MX2 paste. And the end result of all that work.... about 1 or 2 degC. Oh well it was worth it just to see my wife's face as I sanded my processor and heatsink on her granite counter top :yepp:
No doubt the Vendetta is a gem for the money.
See some realy nice clock's here ! I just received a Q9550 and P5Q delx. from newegg . Was abit surprized / disapointed that i received a c1 ...SLAWQ ... Guess i should have check around first . From what i see here i should probly look for a E0..... Anyone no who has them in stock in the US ? or still hit and mis ???

That would be very good news indeed. Although I have seen posts suggesting that low VID can translate to hotter running chips at higher voltages??? That low VID is great for running stock at very low Vcore (and thus very cool) but that higher VID devices run cooler when you get into higher voltages (and overclocks).Quote:

kinda half empty half full theroy. lol
the lower vids have been able to get higher OC's with less volts. thats the way im looking at it. on my E8400 i had to go as high as 1.40v to get it stable at 4.1ghz. i didnt keep it there but thats alot of volts i think plus it was a HOT sob...lol about 3.83ghz is where i would like to run 24/7 once i get my 1066 mem and a better mobo. sure im like everyone else i want that elussive 4.0-4.2ghz OC but i cant and wont run it there 24/7
Shoot at 3.6ghz im getting 66,832 mips out of it. that is awesome i think sandra is a great benching tool..lol
I'm with you there. OC for high benches is a fun challenge but I almost always back it off to lower voltage and lower temps for 24/7. To be honest I can't really justify a quadcore for the way I use the machine (gaming, video encoding (using the GPU not the CPU), folding). I just like the challenge and staying just far enough off the leading edge to avoid going broke :-)Quote:

The above settings were tested with small fft for 4 hours or so without issue, im gonna let it run for 8 hours or more just to be sure, if stable enough ill try a run at 4ghz.
and another P5Q Deluxe with some great numbers....lol
im so confussed as to what board to get. im not trying to start any mobo wars they both are great boards/companys. i just cant deside on which one to go with.. ive had very little luck with the gigabyte boards..... just me though
I think you will like the UD3P/R board much better than your current board. they are awesome with these 45nm quads. Check out the UD3/UD3R/UD3P thread.Quote:

UD3P is the best from thoseQuote:

guess i should post that in the mobo thread..lol sorry all
cincyrob,
I just picked up that exact same batch you have
Coincidentially, I also have single sided 4x1gb crucial ballistix 800mhz. these really suck in comparison to the double sided ones I had prior to their death (they did 1GHZ @4-4-4-12 2.1v)
Coincidentially..(X2), I have the UD3P board everyone raves about ;)
I havent popped my q9550 in yet since my UPS battery died, and I am waiting on new ones which should be in by next wednesday. Although, like you, I feel these sticks will choke down my processor and keep me from making any progress
PS: Just throwing this out there to anyone who wants a handpicked E0. I am heading down to boston tomorrow (and next tuesday) to drop off my car for service. Would anyone like me to pick up a E0 for them at the local microcenter? currently going for ~180 after tax, and I believe they are still carrying the L846B715's. PM me if youre interested :)

what is the best soft between prime95 and Linx (or Intel Burn Test) to check the CPU stability ?
Damn, looks like Im out of luck :shakes:
Got my Q9550 E0 with batch of L845B612, i hope B will still be good (all my Bs have been nice), but it have very high VID for E0, its 1.2750v :eek: All my best Q6600s have 1.2750 or 1.2625v, lets hope it will shine :ROTF:
BTW Im on my P35 P5K-E with 1305 BIOS, with Q6600 I can get ~ 480 FSB with 8x. Hope it will take faar and pas 4+ Ghz.
Well that was fast. I went for the hail mary pass into the end zone and got 475X8.5=4.05GHz @ 1.3V. My temps on core 1 seem out of whack (8C hotter than core 2) so I might need to reseat my heatsink. That is a pain because I have the bolt down kit and I have to remove the motherboard to do it properly.Quote:

It's almost impossible that all cores have the same temps.
My Q6600's cores were always within a few degrees of one another under Prime95 small FFT's. It is a pretty balanced application. It is possible that the IHS on this particular chip isn't making even contact with all the cores. I hope not to have to reseat this. It is a PITA.Quote:

Yours may be different but I have had this same issue on several 45nm quads. I don't even look at the cores anymore, just CPU temp. I have reseated the HS before, on this reseated the waterblock but same results. On my other q9650 I lapped the chip and the TRUE and was able to even them out a bit but never perfect. Look at maximum temps in RealTemp in this SS, it is not just at idle.

I've also heard that LLC + high voltage agrave this happening.Quote:

So you are seeing about 6C difference as well. I like that answer because it means I'm not tearing apart my setup to reseat the heatsink :)Quote:

I will stop Prime if the CPU temp gets above 75c, it will never get that hot in any other normal thing I do so I am ok with up to 75c in Prime.Quote:

I have strange temps too, I have disabled all speedsteps, but idle temps ar the same all time @ 2.83 Ghz or @ 3.8 Ghz, 38/35/35/40, load temps with Intel Burn test is max 53/53/53/53, strange CPU. I have good watercooling oc CPU.
My stock voltage is 1.275v, with it looks like I can burn till 3,7+ and more Ghz, but when I get ~ 450 FSB it freezes whatever I do, even with 7x multi, strange, trying all setings. Maybe need another Q9550, I could burn 470+ with old Q6600 easy :shrug:
But Vcore and VID are two different things. I initially didn't have C1E disabled (turns out you have to disable it in 2 different places in the I45 BIOS). But I am now running with C1E disabled and the Vcore showing 1.272V with the Q9950 at 475X8.5-4.05GHz.Quote:

It might be that you have a FSB hole. Try setting the multi to 7X and then jump straight up past 470 to something well past 450 (like 490 if your mobo has shown it can handle it). Worth a shot...Quote:

Lets hope it is just a bad fsb hole with this cobo, never had problems on my 65nm quads :shrug:
Oh. Looks like I was using an old version of RealTemp. Downloaded the latest and now it shows min VID =1.1000 and max = 1.2500. Does this mean my VID is 1.1000 only when running C1E power savings and 1.25V when running full power?Quote:

the C1E is in 2 different ares of the bios you only have to disable it in either or not both..lol
a 1.25 vid q9550 is still nice though! :) :up:Quote:

But its strange, 445 FSB is easy at low voltages on all setings, next 450 is hard and 460 is hard to boot, 1.7 pll, 1.4 fsb, 1.7 nb and 1.2sb, still nothing, maybe 4 x 2Gb memory is the problem...
GLT changes also do nothing, i think its the bad CPU I got, it sensors are bad and VID also is realy bad (1.275v for 45nm), but still testing, I have 1.8v PLL still to test :D

You better add this test too: Intel burn test!Quote:

Prime95 : CPU Stability
Intel Burn Test/Linx : Cooling Effiency, and RAM.
I'm right ?
Linx also test hard CPU stability, but Prime95 with small FFTs is good test for CPU. I test all of them, after all Prime95 Blend for 12+ hours.

looks sweet to me. im going to put in my Mushkin meme iknow i can get 1066 out of and try and take it up some and see if i get that nice 4.0....lol
My Q9550 is now running at 3.4 GHz, Vcore 1.21V (with LLC), Vnb 1.26V, Vtt 1.26V, Vpll 1.52V.
Is Prime95 for 4h30 (FFTs max at 8kb) enough to check the stability ?
Your running settings fairly similair as mine was at 3.4ghz, though i always run p95 small fft for 8 hours for cpu stability, followed by 8 hours of blend.Quote:

anyone has a L844C076 batch E0 Q9550? vid is 1.125
Very nice vivid, if i can eek 4ghz out of my q9550 ill be extremely happy, 4870x2 looks nice, unfortunately i couldnt afford one at the time, so i had to settle for a gtx 280, not bad for my res of 1920x1200, plays all my games at an ok rate, but if i seen a 4870x2 on auction, id have it quicker than dinner lol.
Are you sure thats not the min vid?Quote:
