knock knock...
update time. :)
ok :( heres the update...
turns out my Q9450 is dead... no idea why set up a test rig and when i powered up the system all i could smell is burning of its little sole... threw in a
E2180 and it booted up perfectly... tested it in another right and had the same
problem... :(
now im processor less.. so i might have to self off a few items before i can
get another. (P5E-VM boxed with all accessories, OEM Maximus Formula give
me an offer...:()
in other news, ive decided to move the layout around and i think ive found a
winner :up: i need more rivets, and i need to fab up a few support beams

How did it commit suicide? Any thoughts =\
Are you going to bury it?
evil how did you pop it?
:T
what was your voltages set at. Dude, i wouldnt drop in another processor until you find out how it died. Or things will keep on dying.
Oh oh...
Tell me it wasn't the mobo please!
I did have one thought, the JR only has 4 phases of power to the CPU. That's not many these days. If the power regulation wasn't up to scratch, could that kill a CPU?
Again, it may have just been a nasty power spike or something. :shrug:
No RMA for the CPU? Has it ben OC'd?
bury it no, more like dissect ! :up:
actually it was all default, though i did do the mistake of dropping the processor a few times but i wouldn't think that would cause in issue im guessing i cracked the one of the dies
no your safe it was on one of my P5E-VM HDMIs and i think its actually a physical defect in the processor
nope.. i tryed RMAing it once for a stuck sensor and i got turned down...
OC'd... is that even a question LOL (page 1, post 2)
QFT :up:
that is true because it wasnt currently running at anything now it runs at NOTHING...
RIP my lovely Q9450 :(
Fair enough, I knew it was probably a stupid question at the time (having not read through the thread :p:) but I just couldn't be sure considering this is a SFF build and there are some that just want the low temps/stock clocks in a cramped space.
Shame to lose the quad though, I know it can be fairly disheartening ;)
Yeah I'm going to assume you bought that when it was crazy expensive. :(
ah man, that sucks Bro. :(
yea i was really looking forward to this build, and i kind of needed it too
i can strip a processor from my main rig but i would still be 1 processor less
so either way i need to come up with another :( hopefully a quad as im
trying to get my render farm going :rolleyes:
ill have some pics posted today :rolleyes:
Good day for me is when i have all 3 of these guys running.
The entire Q9650 family. :rofl:

QX9650 Q9650 X3370 <-- 1/2 twin.
So far only the QX and the Q9650's is up.
I had to take both twins down for a board swap. I dont like the Low end P5Q's.
