The first result with Bios F3a and prommy -30°C :D
E6600 (step4) 4060MHz (9x450) | 1.55v | chipset +0.30 |
It's better that with Asus P5W : max 4005MHz (9x445) 1.7v

wow :) I'm thinking of getting a E6600 soon to replace my old northwood.
What memory are u using for those sort of clocks?
The gigabyte is really looking like the board to get atm :slobber: :D
I have use Corsair 6400C3 :D
I have make new test with Corsair 8500C5 because I use 1:1 (problem to modified the ratio)
My last result
http://users.skynet.be/fb331210/4094.jpg
But, impossible to have a Vcore > 1.59v :(
The PC boot but in XP, freeze ??? With 2.4GHz and 1.6v... freeze bios when the easy tune is open...
I really like this board and I'm sticking with it!
I love the layout, and all the options.
Awesome to see someone running a high FSB with this board.
Besides, looking through the latest Anandtech's reviews, the DQ6 is one of the fastest of the currently available motherboards!
I have unsitall Easy Tune and I overclocked since the bios ! :slobber:
And it's not end... :D

wow, simply amazing. keep pushin it!
We want more :hehe:
whats the chipset cooling?
Just a fan...Quote:

Is that a Mach 1 or 2? What are your core temps idle/load?
Thanks

It's a Mach1 modded by Jort :D
No test full for the moment, in IDLE 4230MHz and 1.7v, the sonde K = -29.3°C
ThanksQuote:

Core, the T° of evap : -46°C :DQuote:

Great! :toast: :clap:
Do you think extreme cooling is needed to achieve your results? I mean, 1.55vcore with a TT BT, for benching at 450-470 x 9 is possible?
And BTW, the vcore in CPU-Z is still wrongly read or is it lowered because of EIST? (sorry for n00b question, AMD here since Tbirds :D)
Air won't go to 4 Ghz on stepping 4.
great benching table, i like it :D

Very beautiful!!!:slobber:
Congrats for your bench table and also for the impressive results!!!:toast:
Now you need som v-mod on the mobo:D
dq6 ( P965 chipset ) - no multi gpu ( no CrossFire) , I find this board a little to expensive for it`s features also .
anandtech had a max of 376 mhz http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2797&p=8 . What kind of cooling you are using CornerJack for the chipset / northbridge ?
" We were finally able to change the CPU voltage that allowed us to overclock the board to our reported results. However, we were not successful in truly finding the limits of this otherwise impressive board. The initial street pricing of $269.99 also has us concerned. After testing with other CPUs and memory, we ruled out BIOS issues and believe our board to be faulty. We have a new retail board on its way that will hopefully fix the issue "
so there is a change this board will rock, but maybe you have some luck :)
any pics of how you insulated your board?
1: Jack, you have the cleanest work area around here. Vey nice
2: Great work! You're one of the few getting good results with the DQ6
3:For the people complaining about the price, It is not $269 (maybe @ newegg) I got mine for $215 @ ewiz (great company btw)
you mean the first in the world :p:Quote:

looks to me that he is using fans to blow on the heatsinks/pipes.Quote:

For the cooling, I use just a prommy (modded by Jort) on cpu and fan for mosfet and chipset. No phase change on the chipset.

To see pictures from the prommy and the insulation : http://www.overclex.net/overclocking...eurs/MOD-MACH1
New overclocking. Today I test ClockGen but yesterday I have problem with the soft and impossible to use :(

^^ Amazing results there.Congrats.
ohh phase ... with tower 120 E6600 can only boot aas high as 395fsb with 9x multi
I finished the tests with E6600 step4.
For the moment, I prefer not to exceed 1.8v
I have, with ClockGen (thank you Franck) still which been able to increase the frequency a little but which not been able to validate !
http://users.skynet.be/fb331210/4347.jpg
And I believe that with a better cooling of the CPU and chipset, I will have been able to validate them.
Here, just a photograph of the screen :D

Now... E6700 step5 :D
nice results :p: , I wanna see more reviews :D
Cool !!! FSB can at 487MHz it higher than P5WDH :slobber:
FSB with the new F3A bios is really getting good! Benchable so far @ 491 for me ( prolly more if I raise voltages) - but with X850XT as GFX and 3DMark05 in the below pic
http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/7...3d0ar25bk5.jpg
But I can't seem to get above 501FSB ( 500FSB with Gigabyte tool ) and I think the fault lies in the BIOS for the 500 limit and not the NB

Woah mike what cooling is that? Very nice!

BUT the CPU is running very nice on the board. Wish I could boot @ 490FSB and wouldn't have to worry every time to manually click up forever...ned to find clockgen....
Booting @ high FSB is still a mayor problem on this board/BIOS - too bad.
I didn't see it asked, but what's the max bootable FSB?
Anyone have tried "retail" E6600 with DQ-6. I've seen (including in this post) three nice results with ES chip. But, some said that retail performance was not so good on DQ-6. I'm really in wonder.

So for now I boot @ 375 and use clockgen to get things up.
With my DQ6 and a E6600 B1 i can boot at 411 without problems but at 423 i also can boot once, next clear cmos just like you :D . Maybe in the next bios we can boot higher.
really nice setup ,and scores .
