nice result...i guess ur VID is lower than mine (1.225)Quote:

scary part was when screen shows raid array members ofline in red, couldn't boot at all, i was thinking all my data will have been lost. thankfully it returned normal after many hours of reset /clear cmos.
i reinstalled xp on another hdd, in ide mode, problem went, when i set raid in bios problem returned.
i changed for another e8400, so far it boots my raid array overclocked. will see how it pans out.
I've changed MOBO from Abit IP35 to DFI X38 and it's looks a little bit better.
BIOS settings:
vcore 1.36v
NB 1.33v
VTT 1.25v
9x445

agree with thatQuote:

Where do i see the VID ?
With 2000 fsb you mean 4x500fsb right? I'm experiencing the same problem a you.Quote:

Is this the so-called FSB-hole kicking for me at 8x503 to 525?
For the moment i'm running my E8400 Q746A556 8x500 @ 1.26v :)

Demon pls give us a prime95 small ffts test with at least 2 hours of running... If it can do it with that voltage, u have a great chip!
Will do. I've been running Orthos small ffts for an hour and a half yesterday and all was well. Hadn't had the change to make a screenshot though, my girlfriend turned the system off when going to bed :slapass:Quote:

How true is this and if it really is faulty, is Intel going to do something about it? This sux!
Is CPU-Z reporting the right CPU voltage?
I am running 500x8 with 1.36v set in BIOS on my Abit X38, but CPU-Z reports about 1.26v, if my memory serves me.
I think my CPU can run small orthos for a few hours no problems, watercooled, I can't remember how long I left it running TBH. I am not a stress test junkie, if it play all my games etc......
I aways assumed CPU-Z was wrong :confused:
Cheers! :D
Unfortunately CPU-Z does not detect the correct Vcore in some cases. Please download V1.44.1 and that should fix it.
I've changed VTT 1.15v and it's working ok.
About my temperatures - I'm waiting for new CPU, because main have got faulty thermal sensor - I'm sure it is not 77 degrees but less - my Heatsink is not even worm.

Sorry, but that made me laugh :D :p:Quote:

Regarding CPU-Z, I think I have that version, I will double check when I finish work.
Intel has already stated that the DTS is not to be used as a temperature reference for desktop processors. So no, there will be nothing done by Intel about this.Quote:

Yes, I use version 144.1 . both CPU-Z and SG report vcore to be 1.26v onder load. This is almost the same as I set in the bios.Quote:

I don't believe any of them and think it's time to find my volt meter to take some readings later.
I am on the 02/13/08 Beta bios btw, although I got the same readings off 12/24 like you are running.

Ok, this mean we'll have to stay with all these crap temps!Quote:
