Sorry...wrong Thread
Got some new memory to sort out my motherboard issues, this has helped me to get here, I stress this was a deathrun to push my board to the limits and is not orthos stable whatsoever, thanks to all the contributoirs here, I picked up a number of tips to help me on my way!
my q9650 VID is 1.2375
BATCH :L820A924 -- 07/31/08
same q9650/cooler

im able to system boot @ 4.6 ghz 511x9 but since 1.45vtt is the max it hinders any further oc.. just got this dfi p35 and idk all the ins/outs of it yet..
looking back @ mars the vregulators are incredible on that mobo
later today ill test the cpu on the giga dq6 p45..
So I am seeing a lot of folks above the recommended vcore and VTT settings of 1.41v vcore and 1.45vtt. Does this mean that those recommended limits have been debunked? I have a QX9650, essientially the same as a Q9650 with adjustable multi and diff stepping, but the voltage limits should be the same across all 45nm quads. Any thoughts?
1.4vcore above recommended?? im below that :D
easy breezy.. it doesnt get any easier than this

EP45 DQ6 :up: :up: awesome mobo! :clap:
same q9650/ifx14
And now some action NapalmV5... SS are nice, I want to see that thing work !!
I dont run my CPU above 1.4V except for the odd 5 minute bench, when I did that 4.45 run I actually didnt know how many Volts it would take so over volted to be on the safe side, I did a 2006 run yesteday at 4.3gig on 1.375V (BIOS) ....1.36 (real) and she got through it OK, seems to be these chips get better as they "loosten" up.
I can boot to windows at 4.5gig, have not tried anymore than that....too scared, as I am on air the temps are getting a bit toasty in Orthos at that speed :down:
i guess everythings just a ss.. :)
so far 4 x memtest instances stable
cpuz vcore @ 1.328-1.344

NapalmV5
wow 500 FSB, nice ! Great chip!
That's friggin amazing that you are over the 475Mhz FSB wall and then going past 500Mhz with a quad, simply amazing. I am assuming you are not using any exotic cooling like phase change or LN. Anyway, what is your VTT voltage set at and what GTL references are you using? I may try to push my chip this week since I haven't really done it yet.
Thanks,
Utnorris
WaterFlex - thanks :)
Utnorris - thanks.. oh ive stated several times air/ifx14 cooling.. no water/phase/ln2
what vtt? forget about it.. you guys wanna faint/end up in the er? :) lol
no gtl tweaking whatsoever.. may play around with gtl to os boot @ 4.7ghz
just listen to your cpu.. itll let you know what it needs/craves :)
hmmm seriously though, whats your VTT i would like to know what to do about mine and a little 4.4 ghz benching :D
Q9650 500x9! It is my dream:rolleyes:
andressergio - thanks :)
SNiiPE_DoGG - lol lets just say it is higher than the "recommended vtt" :)
runs 3dmarks without a hitch @ 500x9

Nice to see 500FSB becoming not so hard like before :D
Napalm......VERY nice, I see I need to do a little more, havent played with Vtt's yet, just left it on auto, maybe I will raise a bit to lower VCore a bit (hopefully).
thanks tatty and good luck.. wish you 4.5ghz steady aswell :up:
system specs:
Q9650
EP45 DQ6
Mushkin 4GB 1066
4870 1GB @ 850/950
Areca ARC1210/Raptors
Silverstone OP1000
even @ 4GB just as stable

i did os boot @ 4.7ghz/no gtl settings but no ss.. nonetheless will be enjoying this stable 4.5ghz for some time.. or at least until the next mobo.. :)
good luck guys!
:p: You need a GTX260 :yepp:.....and that one was just at 4gig.
wow NapalmV5 all that on a Giga?! Amazing results!
Can't wait to get my system hooked up and see the Q9650 limits. But quite frankly I think your most likely at the very top.
Well done!
Actually, what he needs to do is add another 4870 or trade that 4870 for a 4870x2, :D
i got onr of these puppies coming at me from NewEgg . will be here wedsday (I hope) i'll post the batch # when i get it can't wait , my 9450 is a dog , the QX9770 is way cool
Tatty_One - oh i wanted a 280GTX.. waiting on the new 280GTX
Jor3lBR - thanks :)
Utnorris - yeh but the issues associated with multi gpu cards is whats keeping me away..
-
heres that 4.7GHz.. same everything..

more than just a ss :)

how i got to 4.7? patience..
cpu wants to go even higher but this is the end of the road for the mobo on air.. :(
btw if you guys are wondering what air? not ac cold air or anything like that.. just a 71 F ambient
