Could only use CCF at those speeds and Priming when I used an A/C blowing on it. And also make sure your CCF is mounted the way is supposed too I think the fan should be pointing the back of the mobo not sideways (NB). If you search this thread on my Name and Core Contact Freezer you'll see my temps on winter with tit at 1.37vcore and 4400 where topping 73oC-75oC.

The way I mounted on that pic was wrong, I had best results with the CCF mounted with the fan facing the back of the case and not sideways.

Mine is mounted sideways also. It won't fit pointed towards the back. However my case has a exhaust fan out the top so I wouldn't think it would matter.
Here is a pic of my setup.

Yea your going to need to do something about those temps before youll get a good clock. Those temps are pretty toasty for that find of voltage. If your cooler wont fit front to back id atleast get a better fan setup or skip the BS and go water. :up:

I also have a Zalman 9700, think there is any chance it would perform better. I'll have to look into a water setup, always been on air.

Just reached 6 hours prime stable. Will continue to let it run until tomorrow morning and see how it goes. However these are the same settings that failed IBT, but could be because of the added heat with IBT.

With your cooling the way it is now I wouldnt bother running IBT, its simply getting to hot to be stable with 90c temps. If it passes 8+ hours of prime blend id call it good and start fine tuning it to see what it really needs.

Nothing wrong with air, you just gotta do it right - I don't understand why you're into the 70s with that vcore. The Zalman is at least worth a try... I have one and when I was priming my Q9550 with 1.38 vcore the load temps never reached 55C. Are you using the correct tjmax value?

Well here is almost 15 hours prime stable. Yes, I am using the correct tjmax of 100C.

Most people here use 95C for tjmax - 100C is the default value in coretemp, but not necessarily the correct value. :p:

100C is the official setting for 45nm CPU's (AFAIR its same for both Duals and Quads) but I do know for a fact its 100C for a 45nm Wolfdale Dual Core.

That info was publically disclosed by Intel months/year ago.

All Apps were updated ages ago for this info inc Everest/CoreTemp and RealTemp.

i always use 100c for tjmax.
06-28-2009, 01:19 PM

Yes 100C is the figure released by intel which many people choose to ignore, for whatever reason - perhaps tjmax 95 gives more accurate readings, or perhaps they prefer to use the same value as that of the QX9650. I'm really puzzled by the 77C load temp you get because my chip, presumably lower binned (being a 9550), never reaches 60C with almost 1.4 vcore. :shrug:

That's Great FSB For Quad
What's Ur Cooling In High FSB??
Can U Take Shot Ur Rig And :) Maybe Be Mistake For Change Mobo To DFI GigaByte Is Best For Quad

Great job andressergio. I think you will make it to long 5Ghz before I do.

High voltages aren't THAT scary.:up:

You guys really make me want to try water cooling after seeing the pictures. Nice looking rig sergio.

Wanna show you some shocking pics from what goes with new Batch of q9650 coming out in good old Germany::eek:

4050MHz with only 1,152v:clap:

http://www.abload.de/img/q9650_4050_115zpbi.png

4320MHz with 1,248v:clap:

http://www.abload.de/img/q9650_4320uovd.png

More not tested, because of cooling with air and temps excied 70° above 4450MHz @1,3v.
So long
