New E6600 batches, post your Overclock

[demenion]

Any more results with the L649G batch? I just got two 6600s from ZZF but don't have a mobo to test yet.

[rossel21]

As demenion stated does anyone have results for the L649G batch from ZZF. I am waiting on memory to install, just wondering how this batch is?

Thanks

my L709A442 is stable at 3.6ghz 1.48v loaded 12 hours orthos blend, this new chip is pretty flat and very cool .. check out my idle temps

Hey I have it and its pretty good. Im still testing it, but you'll be able to get 3.6 or higher.

I recieved 2 of the same batches as well from zzf also

i havent taken any screenies yet, but i do know that it will do 3.4 with 1.35 vcore (in bios ds3 rev3.3 f11b)

I've ran it at 7x500 @ 1.375 vcore but its not quite stable at the current settings.

Right now im testing at 8x438 3.5 at 1.38 in the bios. Cpu-z and speedfan always read it lower, and i dunno which one to believe.

im using the thermalright ultra 120 extreme and under load at 8x438 and 1.38 vcore is are 25c idle, and 42c fully loaded with orthos.

I'm always surprised when newer batches don't OC as well as original ones...logically, I would think that if anything, they would iron out the production process and they would get better, not worse. Weird!

Seems ok, I'm still deciding if I should keep the E6600s or just go with a 4300. I'll be using D9 + DFI 965 + Scythe Infinity.

3/20/2007. It just passed an hour of prime at 3.6ghz w/ 1.42V.

Man I bought one of those Frys $199 e6600's, I'm praying that this thing is as good as yours, because I just sold a rock solid e6400 to g et it.

Intel will be selling $266 quads in Q3 ... they need to build up a stock of good cores. Ergo ... OCability of shipped dual cores suffers.

That looks good. Im shooting for a 3.5-3.6 oc but ill be just happy with a 3.2-3.4 oc. at least i know I should be able to do 3.5 with decent temps, i got the same cooler

It's usually the other way around because the manufacturer gets better at their binning process so the higher overclockers go to the more expensive processors.

I got one as well from ZZF. I can't test it out until I get ahold of my graphics card though. Trying to hold out to see what R600 does on Wednesday but it's hard to wait lol. I have a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme already here and it's going in a new Silverstone TJ09 so I will have some great aircooling going on.

Where has everyone purchased the Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme from? Everywhere I found is sold out/backordered. Thanks

I got mine from Jab-tech. Check TankGuys.

My chip is very good and passed 10+ hours of prime blend at 3.6ghz w/ 1.43V.

Yea I got mine from jab-tech as well. I think svc has em.....

[rfisher983]

I remember my old athlon 3700+ passed 12 hours of prime. Later I started getting into company of heros and my sound would skip and it would disconnected me in the middle of the game. 6 months later I ran othoros and that test failed in 43 minutes but prime95 passed.

The point - I don't trust prime95. I test using orthos and occt.

[Benamin]

Got my e6600 the other night and I am just Orthos testing the first OC overnight of 8x400=3200 @ 1.35vcore My load temps are 38c. Oh Ya, this chip is from batch L646G509

By next week I should know what it'll do. I like find my stable way up but it takes forever.

LOL

Same happened to me with a E6400, I slowly degrading from 3.5->3.2 Ghz over time. Prime initially passed me then starting failing me any thing over 3.2..

[sofarfrome]

...I bought a new E6300 from ebay for $130 to use in a back up rig and so far testing has been horrid. Batch code is Q706A and it is orthos blend stable up to 2.64GHz at stock vcore. Going beyond this even with 1.6vcore is impossible. The system will absolutely not boot at 3.0 and orthos fails within 10 seconds from 2.7-2.9GHz no matter how much vcore I pump into it. It appears the chip doesn't like any additional voltage above stock.

The pic on ebay said it was an L629B batch and the one I had before was orthos stable at 3.2GHz with stock vcore. I contacted the seller and hopefully he will trade me for this piece of crap Q706A.

[aclim]

hey sofarfrome, I see you have the same ram as I have, how high of an O/C have you gotten it up too? just wondering.

Ok..I do not understand this..I "DONT TRUST PRIME95"..

orthos is nothing more than Prime95 with GUI

BTW I use Prime 95 v251..which easily runs both cores on C2D or all 4 cores on a quad

hi, my E6600 which I bought last friday:

It's L640F037 non selected, 3700MHz with 1,362V real in load. Air cooling by Tuniq Tower 120.

[bro20000]

M@T!Z Where did you buy that from!

[DEVIL K-ce]

M@T!Z Where did you buy that from!

My golden hand shoot this 6600

Handpicked, but no open box ...


CPU is from Poland.
