I already have the board pencil molded. I did that back when I was running the E6750. When I switched out to a Q6600, the vdroop returned and I have been using LLC. With LLC disabled, I get .008 vdroop under load. Should I redo the mod?Quote:

Oh well idle if it matters ~34c
3.8Ghz @ 1.35v on q9550
AC set to 80F and fan on normal speed
~60C on all cores with Prime
AC set to 76F and fan cranked up a little
~56C on all cores with Prime
Really? ac or wc? cos that's pretty low IBT load temp for 1.4v...Quote:

i don't know what to say.
that's incredible.
hard to believe though, especially if you idle at 34.
1.4v? you sure? i mean, at 1.3 my q9450 starts to hit 80 under IBT, and after that the temp/volt curve gets pretty steep.
I'm under tunitower and it's hard to believe there's that much difference.
i guess i'm glad i bought that xig for the family build ;]
Well yes.... I got pretty good airblow on my antec. 1.36V 4h PRIME95 And temps were around 55-63. 1.4V Intelburner max temp was 72c
I am happy of these temps becouse my chip is 1.25000VID and needs pretty high voltages for high clocks
are you saying that p45 helps with FSB wall on 45nm quads? I got rid of my X3350 because I couldn't get it much past 3.3ghz on my x38 mobo.Quote:

well p45 wasn't out at the time and I got a sweet deal on the E8400.... but yea...Quote:

3.6 Ghz is driving me nutty.
I do a P95 (8hrs +) and IBT x10. All passes everything is fine.
I reboot and do the exact same thing and IBT fails and so does P95 (randomly, rounding error).
Very reluctant to up the voltages, temps sit at 65-66c when IBt'ing. And I've tried to prochot switch at 71c...three times.
Any ideas?
Other than that, the system for usablity is stable, it's only P95 and IBT "tellin me" that my system is unstable.
Thats just p45, If your machine works on your daily use why bother looking at stress test results?Quote:

.008 vdroop aint bad at all!
you may be able to mod out that vdrop, but i wouldn't worry too soon.
that's a good clock for a quad, though it's a shame, with almost any recent board you could be getting 4ghz...
check out that spankin biostar board for a cheapish upgrade.

Hopefully im right with disabling LLC but it looks like i am :) , goodluck man.
Thanks guys. I'll keep with this for now and see how it goes. I don't want to spend any more money on this thing with the i7 so close. I do regret selling my Q6600. It was 3.8 stable and 3.96 max, but oh well, spilled milk, etc...... :(
That's it. Forget 3.6 Ghz stable. Core 3 throwing a wobble, bumped up voltages, Core 0 throwing a wobble, bumped up nb volt, Core 1 throwing a wobble within 7 mins.
I'm back to my 3.4 Ghz stable - Small FFTs and Blend both 12hrs+. And IBT stable.
Saying that, I will problem have another bash at it. I can't help myself, I can feel I'm close.
Regarding LLC, when I disable this, the system has a proper fit.
aww cmon, you gotta be able to do 3.6 stable! try 1.6vnb and 1.3vcore? you positive your ram's stable?
I'd really hate to see a Q9450 crapping out like this! mine have shown me so much love!
Yeah RAM is rock solid, I could nuke those sticks and they would still work!Quote:

Lol, yeah it can be really frustrating.Quote:

Never really tortured my cpu with high voltages but i did ad two HD's so i think that it causing the problem.
What speeds do you get out of your ram? I still didnt try to push mine so im a bit curious what they can do.
I can boot to 3.8 fine, just not IBT or P95 stable at all. RAM OCs to 556Mhz easy peasy. Stable too. But I prefer to keep RAM at stock or less speeds while trying to obtain the magic :bows: 3.6 :bows:
I don't want to speak too soon, but I think I might have 3.6 Ghz stable, IBT passes fine. P95/Blending now.
Did you use my settings I posted for you? I reposted them in the P5Q thread for you the other day.
Good on ya. Personally if i passed IBT i wouldn't bother with P95. guess it depends on how much RAM and how many passes though.
Mind sharing some volt info?
