Tried the same today Dinos. Same E8500 and Commando that wil do 600mhz FSB 32M with 6 multi on air. Problems to get over 593 with 9.5 multi though. Chip boots at -100 and runs -140 fine. No tweaks or pmem and cas5:

Great clocks mate, do you think you were fsb limited at 9.5 multi or was it just the cpu speed coming to a grinding halt?
I can imagine 5611MHz is pretty much all it had in it.
Not sure Zeus. Ran it at Extera's, thanks a lot my friend it was good fun :up: Gained a lot goin up from 1.64 to 1.84v but not a mhz from 1.84 to 1.95v. Think/hope it was board but we ran out of time unfortunately.
i don't think that's the caseQuote:

davemelb has done dual 32M SuperPi on air cooling at 600MHz (well it stopped 3/4 way which is very close to stable with some other CPUs) >> I have them at home
the chip i benched was happy doing the same tests with 1.67v as 1.8v so my chip certainly had plenty of steam left in it :)Quote:

hey dudeQuote:

btw i finally received those VRs and sending it all to kayl today to send with the goodies :up:
i will test it on X38 boards on LN2 soon
fingers crossed 600 stable :D for some 5.7GHz benching hehehe

Hmm, maybe I misunderstood you. You have p5b dlx that maxes out @ what fsb (on air) with other chips, 600+? So, you also have 8500 that maxes at 590 1M on the same dlx?
If that's the case then it is cpu wall already on air. Freeze it and wall will rise up to 50-60fsb in the best case :)
I have tested 4 chips on 965. They all max out 620fsb flat on air. I must be either very luck or many 45nm will do 600+ easily :)
it must be my explanation hehe
this board used to below to a member called davemelb who tested 3xE8400 CPUs and all of them benchmarked 590MHz FSB with ease on air cooling
i don't know where the wall on this E8500 is as i haven't got the right board yet that can give me the FSB i need but i would not be surprised to take 6GHz screenshots if i found the right board as this CPU is a great overclocker with very low vcore and also it's a very hot CPU as well.....all the makings of a great chip :D hahahah
dinos22 when we are talking about high fsb CPUs, what did u do with 620mhz air 6850?
i just tested it on air and did some 580 32Ms from memory and sent it owards because yorkfield was in town...who'd waste time on old tech right :pQuote:

Thanks!!
which X38 board you used to get 600+ fsb??

why is that not unusual to hear :DQuote:

really tempting to buy one of those chips when my commando comes back from rma.
What do these puppies on air ???
hehe:D http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=309702Quote:
