XtremeTiramisu's CPU is on par with the ES CPUs WOW
I'm getting around 47C on all 4 cores at idle with my Big Typhoon @ stock voltage and 8 X 400 = 3.2GHZ. You think the Typhoon is too small for the Q6600 G0 stepping I got from NCIX?
Thanks,
Y2J
Just ignore them, I got the same buggy temps (system is -31C) with Vista Business. However, the core temps is accurate.Quote:

Alright, very nice to know that a few of you can also bring the Q6600 G0 baby up to 3.7~3.8ghz range. It's definetely something out of the norm and amazing. For those of you who also got yours up to ~3.7ghz what was your cooling method, ambient temp and relative Vcore? It's always nice to make some comparason :)
Also my VID is 1.2625 so this generally means the chip has better overclock-ability @ lower given volts for the same clock as the same chip running at same clock speed. For example, someone need 1.45v to get 3.6~3.7 stable but I only need about 1.38v load to get 3.6+ stable.
VID doesn't determine your overclock-ability in terms of your chips' max FSB or clock speed but it has to do with the voltage that's needed to acheive those speed. At stock speed 2.4ghz, we each start off with different voltage being different VID from chip to chip. I started of at 1.23v (1.26v VID) at 2.4ghz and some may start off at 1.28v (1.30v VID) at the same 2.4ghz for our Q6600 G0s.
An update on the new high OC progress:
You guys all know I'm testing my xtreme quad OC on AIR right so ambient def plays a very significant role here. I was having terrific luck running 3780mhz at only 1.45v load with ambient temp being 19c~20c in the early morning.
Now the ambient has rise up to 26~28c all afternoon and it's considerable warm at the current time - 7:30pm PST so I need to back down on the clock : volts a little bit. So far I know for sure of is that this chip is capable of getting prime stable at 3700mhz ++ that's for sure. 3.8ghz may even be possible if we're on a different season :p
But you gotta love summer time and the sun shine and we're all hiding inside OC-ing like bunch of geeks...lol no offense, saying that including myself :p
So I'd say Max stable OC for this season will be in the low-mid 3700mhz and given that, it's still an outstanding OC on air. Expect 3.8ghz+ on air towards the end of the year ;)
This screen shot is just to show the effect of increased ambient temp and its relation to the core temps.
50min+ Small fft full load on all 4 cores. (This isn't the max stable OC if you haven't seen my previous screen shots)

Anyhow, I'll update the next screen shot shortly.
Thanks to everyone who has participated in the thread :)
this is great
and it's what i was hoping they would be able to do
~3.6GHz :)
anything above that is bonus :):):):):):)

It's a RETAIL chip afterall and not one of those ES too good to be true BS.
At 3.7ghz with low volts on air, it's still PRIME STABLE during the season we OC'er hate the most - SUMMER!
Even at 3700mhz and a little higher is still consider as safe and stable for running it daily as long as you strictly keeping your 4 x 100% load 4 cores prime temp down below Intel Spec's 71c. :)
I'm sure none of the applications I do will ever get all 4 cores to run like prime..lol hence much lower core temp in the end. But I just want to use Prime's 100% x 4 cores temp as my standard.
let's hope they are ALL like your chip now :D
Not quite unfortunately.Quote:

Thought I would grab this mid prime to show the vdroop.
Set at 1.56v in bios. Idle at 1.51-53. As you can see 1.45v at load.
Didn't realise your tests were small FFTs. All my previous tests were blending. Seems blending is just a tad more difficult to get stable, but runs cooler than ffts. My PWM temps are looking good:)
These temps are cpu underwater. Aircon fighting a warm Thai day.

i bet you if you used it on the Asus mobo you would get the same result as XtremeTiramisu
agreed.Quote:

Also it seems like RTL is on high-end water cooling setup + Priming in Blend instead of small fft which will produce even more heat.
His ambient temp will also vary his overall core temp but not as much as air cooled quads.
I will not doubt his Q6600 OC-ability but he may ended up using a tad more volts than mine clock for clock.
But all in all, it's great to see the G0 Q6600 all have very good results :)
The future is here now! essentially, I didn't expect this day to come so soon, especially for air cooled quad core OC'ers :)
abit will use more volts and droop harder than Asus
hence why i said what i did as i've had experience with both on dual cores
quad core droop will be even worse

If the voltage damper is set to dissabled, you'll get more vdroop, hence lower core temp in the end and this may or may not be a good thing.
Heh, stable or not (not), I always wanted to post a 4GHz screenshot...here it is.:D
hey man congratz on your Q6600 G0 :)Quote:

hey dinos22 when is your Q6600 G0.. :D
nice.. :D hehehe.. what batch?? Q6600 is really flying.. :DQuote:

nice results guys... :up:
anyone at 4.5ghz air stable yet?
Not a great fan of Asus boards, but given the vdroop, dampeners and the like, I might of given it a bit more consideration. Still...........Quote:

Just a few more tests. 1.63v bios 1.57 idle in guru etc.
8800 gtx 655/1055

Nice:clap:
Kinda makes me wish I had watercooling.
is that orthos stable?Quote:

So it's pointless at this stage whether his G0 Q6600 is prime stable or not.Quote:

I know this thread is meant for Q6600 G0 Overclock-ability on air but don't missed that his nicely done 3.9ghz clock is on high-end water. :)
I wonder what's his temp are like at this OC stage on water and what could be the max OC-able speed with water cooling a G0 Q6600. It would be nice to compare whether hundreds of dollars invested in a watercooling is worth taking up the OC up to the next high level from proven 3.7ghz+ on air configuration. (Saying this becouse I'm thinking about watercooling, but short on fund :p: )
Well it would still last a few years at that voltage, so hardly a big deal considering the turn over of chips. If its prime its prime, temps and running costs aside. Its under water so I doubt the temps are as high as air.Quote:
