This cpu is the best 6600 i ever had :) I will test him under ln2 but i think the board limits now...
Just picked up a L630B016 E6600 at Frys in Concord Ca and the VID is 1.2625v.:)
I haven't had a lot of time with it yet but so far it's at 3.0ghz default vcore passing orthos blend on an Abit AB9. It just replaced a L628A that wouldn't go over 3.4 with any voltage!!:mad:
I'll post back when it tops out. :toast:
How can you can tell what the VID is?
Core TempQuote:

i think the VID is a pretty good way to tell how good your chip will be. I picked up a 31A today and its VID is 1.32v and my 28B was 1.23v. I tested the 31A with same setting as the 28B, and it couldnt hang with it. Needed 1.43v to get stable.
R U using Core Temp v0.94 ?Quote:

Great, you're about to get a ton of questions like "when did you order?", "what warehouse did it ship from?", & "do you want to sell one?". Then people are gonna order from the egg just to see if they can get a b then RMA when its not:rolleyes:Quote:

i'm interested to see your result. I wanna see if that VID holds true. Set 1.35v in bios with 400x9 to see if you can get stable. Supposely with that low VID you should be able to.Quote:

I have mine running @ 3.6ghz with 1.3875 (bios), 1.33V (Vdrop)
And CoreTemp shows the VID as 1.0625v
My CPU can boot and do basic windows applications @ 4.06ghz with 1.48V
Gaming stable with 1.52V
E6600 Week 30A
Got 3.2ghz at default vcore and 3.3 failed in 2 minutes. Not going to fine tune it because its getting more volts!:DQuote:

Double checking 3.2 to be sure it's ok.:)
Edit: posted wrong screen shot. Correct now.
Thats a smart way to overclock.:nono: You hang your cpu it may not work as a well as when new.;)Quote:

wat is your temperature like when in 3.6? I mean small FFT stress..Quote:

I assumed you had the abit max board when I saw the abit utility, my bad. The 3.6ghz @ 1.36v is a good goal, and it wasn't a guess, its user experience with b core cpus. But I understand if you don't want to push your cpu or system. Have fun with whatever you do. Considering your 3.1 ghz with 1.22vcore @ load, I think you have a real gem there.
:toast: We're cool dude. I'm just trying to provide some info for this thread. Raised vMCH up a notch and now it's doing 3.3 Orthos blend ok. Gotta wait till am though.:D Oh, and I posted wrong screen last post.:brick:Quote:

you need to use coretemp .94, the older version I think read the wrong VIDQuote:

Thats decent. I got a L626B089 from there about the same time. I'm waiting on an overclocking board to give it a try.Quote:
