Well, now that I've started priming at 3.51GHz and 1.4375v(BIOS)/1.125v(CPUz) they'll both crap out at roughly two hours. Sometimes a little under two, sometimes a bit over. definitely not stable enough for me either way. Good thing is that it'll run the F@H SMP client just fine. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get this chip up to 3.6 on air, but it might be a little hot. When I finally get my water setup going, who knows.Quote:

i a L721A814 and it sucks i cant overclock it for crap the most i have gotten was 3.6 but it would only load windows then blue screen like crazy so i have it running at 3.375ghz 1.55v in bios which i did with my old b3. i have it on my evga 680i sli mb should i rma my board or volt mod or do both
do both, rma it, then do the pencil mod on the new A1 rev board you get ;) :up:Quote:

What is amazing is how sensitive the temps are to ambient. One benchmark done at 84 deg F and then turned on the A/C to lower temp to 70deg F. Drops the temps precipitously. Also, lapping the CPU drops 5 deg on load.
i would change out your mobo...if your processor is a "G0", it is most likely the mobo that is holding you back.Quote:

I just bought 2 SLACR
L725a902' MicroCenter Cincinnati
They had new shipment. Box of 5. 3 left for sure. They are behind counter, not in cabinet. Make sure you ask. I hope these clock well...
Any advice for XBX2 and 965S Dark?
TIA...
It looks like to get the max out of your quad you will want a P35 or a 680i chipset. This is strictly based off of what i have seen posted. Nothing hands on as i'm using a P965.
I will only be using Air coolers (Zalman 9700) or (Tuniq 120).
The XBX2 are for resale. Long term stability is VERY important.
The 965S is my personal. Currently running e4300 @ 3.5 othos 8+ hours stable.
Additional advice appreciated.
L723A648 q6600 go
This is stable overclock. Can not pass orthos any higher then 3800mhz with any voltage. I think its my p5k deluxe that is holding me back. My x6800 will not run 4gig on this mobo but has no trouble with my P5wdh or my P5b. Vcore 1.58, vid 1.2375. This cpu has a 505 max stable fsb on this mobo. I find it very hard to believe that anybody on water cooling is running a q6600 go at 4gig truly stable. Im on chilled water 10c. My system is finding it hard to handle temps at 1.58 vcore. Im getting up to 66c at full load so i can imagine how hot regular water cooling system must get. Or maybe i just got a crappy hot chip?
having a little fun over in the IP35 Pro thread...thought you guys would enjoy this friendly competition.

lets see...hmmmmm...i beat you by 2 whole Mhz...LOL:up:
hey guys..this is a workable Mhz..open up the browser and sent/received email.
Hey Ace, sorry to :horse: but are you still pissed at TankGuys now? Nice chip.
Ace, you think youre 4.2ghz q6600 is due to using only 2 sticks of ddr2? If you added another 2, it might be unstable? I'm thinking my chip has a shot at 4.0 ghz ( if I play with the settings, @ 3.8ghz now) but is being held back by 4 sticks. Sounds logical?
i am getting tired of my 680i i would rather get a p35 board but i will wait and see after i get my rma'd board and volt mod it maybe that will get my q6600 g0 clocking highQuote:

EDIT The egg is still shipping some B3's according to comments. Just ordered a L726A from Tankguys.
Here is my X3210 batch code L723A from saveateagle.com
Rest of rig in my sig
Currently working on 3.8GHz at 1.52vcore.

no, i am not anymore.:) ...actually, i was just upset because i wanted to send my B3 Q6600 and Tuniq 120 to "Spawne32" right away to test in his mega marathon heatsink roundup...so...i ordered this "G0" from TG's hoping to get it very quickly...once TG had that bad shipment, i thought there would be a huge delay in getting the B3 to Spawne32...time was critcal for Spawne32 since he had another commitment after the labor day weekend.Quote:

Spawne32 will post the results very soon...i believe by next week.
i would buy again from TG's if he would sell to me...LOL:p:
