If DFI would suck it up and release a p45 LT with a similar feature list to the Foxconn then I would jump all over it, but I don't see this happening :(

no clockgen.. all clocks/voltages set @ bios.. and still no gtl tweaking not yet anyways..

You have amazing chip! 500x9 clock is great. But i can`t believe it`s on air...
He's got and older version of realtemp there so tjmax may be off 5 degrees but from what I see this is not a real hot running quad. This is cooled by TRUE + ultrakaze...

I want a +4.0GHz quad so bad but I don't think my Q9450 has it in her. Maybe that will change when my P45 board gets here :yepp:
got mine up & running on the test bed + Asus R/F mobo + DD TDX water block + GTX360 rad stock cooling there after
running stock @ 3 GHz = prime 95
temps under load are 36,32,32,33 real temp,
idle 24,22,23,28
room temp ambiant 24.8
water temp coming off cpu is 26.1 into pump then rad
batch l825b323 pack date 9-3-08
core voltage in CPUZ 1.184
tests of sensors in realtemp show
core 0=7
core 1=5
core2=7
core3=1
think I got a stuck sensor as that core is runnig hot compared to the others gonna reset the water block tomorrow & if it don't change think i'm gonna RMA it .. while i still can back to Egg
set the bus speed to 450 & the FSB came up 1800 @4 GHz every thing but the mem timing on auto but not stable in prime
loonym - indeed 5 average higher @ coretemp
look guys i didnt come/post here to increase my chips value to 2 grand as it has been mentioned.. nor do i intent to sell it why would i wanna do that..
anyways.. was just sharing with you guys a classic oc every step of the of the way: patience/trials/perseverance/brute force all on air.. have been ocing for almost 10 years now.. just cause im not breaking records or better known/trusted like others here.. doesnt mean idk how to oc/am posting fakes
as soon as ill get another cpu.. its the only one i got at the moment.. ill slap on the vapoLS and show you guys even higher clocks ;)
2 x YSTech 7.92w + video + psu total fans
i got these fans like 7 years ago if not longer

You`re the luckiest overclocker ever. :up:
I'll be getting a 9650 very soon because of this thread. thanks to everyone who contributed.
A little OT... but Napalm, what kind of mod is that on your ATI? What kind of gains did you get from it? Thanks.
Wow Napalm....congrats! i really do need to start playing, what Vtt are you using assuming that is helping to keep the VCore requirements down? I must admit I have never played with this before so I am just gonna set mine to 0.613 or whatever it is and take it from there!
idk about lucky.. getting a good chip is the lucky part if you cant pick and choose
nugzo - no oc gain.. though there may be some nice gains on the 4850 cards
Tatty_One - 560x9/5040 highest system boot ive tried so far using the same voltages @ 4.9ghz os boot.. so yeh you guys gotta push harder if you want higher clocks :)
once you guys push harder youll find out what voltages your cpu likes
1.28 vcore is what it came back as when set on auto , if remember right i was burnt out from work last nite when i ran the 1st OC & will not have time to mess with the Q9650 till tonite after work agin (gonna keep a log of all the setting I use next time i start OC'in')
@Napalm can you post yer settings that u have been using . gives some of us a starting point
d/l'ed the newest realtemp (2.79.7) & checked the testing of movement of sensors this morning & got (all this at stock settings in bios )
core0 = 8
core1 = 5
core2 = 8
core3 = 0
think I should RMA it back to the EGG ??
temps at idle 24,22,21,33 ambiant@20.7 cores # 's 0,1,2 show movement but core # 3 stays at 33 always NO movement on that core
Bigslappy, my cores are very different in idle too.. But under load i have a max. difference of 3°C.

idk you guys tell me.. prime95 is not my thing.. 2GB ram.. ive ran it again @ tighter mem settings same results.. im running on nlited xp32 and ive removed a lot of stuff.. i do remember smtg about prime @ nlite.. id have to run prime95 on full xp32 version
something else im missing? :shrug:
vtt is more than the "recommended vtt" and less than 2v
you guys want to napalm your systems/cpus with my voltages? :)
bigslappy - you got a good one :up:
NapalmV5 - I was not implying you came and posted for that reason, so I apologize if that is how you took it. What I was trying to say is that you have a golden chip because:
1 - Your on air and you have low temps.
2 - You are not using much vcore and from what I gather except for the VTT voltage you are not adjusting anything else, which implies that you are not having to tweak much to get the high FSB.
3 - Virtually every post I have read on any Intel quad shows a FSB wall of around 475FSB unless going with something better than air.
4 - You are using mainstream boards to do your testing, not extreme boards like the Maximus II.
I am glad you are able to get your chip to such heights. What I am trying to figure out is whether it is the chip, the chipset or some setting you are using that the rest of the overclocking world is missing. This is why people have asked for you to post your settings time and time again. What I would love is for someone to be able to duplicate the results, but I haven't seen that yet. Please, just post your settings so that someone here can try and duplicate what you are achieving.
Am I skeptical? Sure I am and everyone here should be untill others have the same success. Am I doubting your integrity or skill? Not at all. I just think you have a golden chip and the results will not be duplicated by anyone else.

i didnt mean you.. my wording not so great.. was just referring to what you said.. its all cool
ive taken it up to 560x9 5040mhz of course just a system boot not os on air
how do you know im not adjusting anything else ? :) maybe i am ;)
ill let the good/veteran overclockers tell you guys what im doing.. :D they know what im doing :up:
time will prove me.. dont worry guys ill surely wont be the only one @ these clocks
Please don't be so elitist and share with the others so that they may benefit. It's not what you have, but what you do with it...our benching team could benefit, but you are holding out?:stick:
