*Official Retail G0 Q6600 Overclocking Thread*

[GripS]

No kidding. Hey EVERYBODY!!! Include your damn batch code when posting such nice results. God damn!

Question now is. If you can hit 3.6 with only 1.3v what can it do with 1.4 or 1.5v?

Whats your Damn batch than ??
Mine are in my sig..

hehehe......it's earlier in the thread i'm sure. L724A760. But mine's not that impressive. It might be on a P35 though. I'll find out later this month.

[ineedaname]

Could you tell us the exact batch you got? L737Bxxx, what's the xxx in your case? I trust it's a B and not A series right?

Batch: L737B062

Date: 10/31/07

BTW turns out the xeon is a G0 not a B3 and performs similar to the q6600.

I got a buddy who has a bunch of these xeons for sale but not 4 long.

So if it takes your L737B 1.33V to reach 3600MHz stable, then how much do you give it at 4GHz 2x Orthos stable? I would think about 1.53V right?

The reason I ask is because my L737B325 also needs 1.32V for 3.6GHz and 1.432V for 3.825GHz so was wondering how yours compares.

Look carefully, 1.33V is my XEON 3220. The xeon is a G0 Week 17A. I cannot get this xeon to do 4ghz because of temps.

I have another q6600 that can do 1.29V 3.6ghz. This cpu however can do 4ghz. I'm still trying to get it prime stable but it should be doable at around 1.45v

Right now the temps are quite high at 4ghz but a lapping should fix that problem since the cpu is concave and the tim needs to cure.

packdate?

just ordered a chip... it'll be batch #737B011
hope it turns out to be a good one

[khamo]

I have been reading this thread from the start and have learnt a lot. My first build ever as in my sig. 24/7 use. 12 hrs prime and orthos stable both small ftt and blend. Air cool temps (72F ambient) are idel 42,39,38,38 and prime 4 thread small ftt 67,65,61,62 (speedfan and core temp both). Are these good for 24/7 use, minor gaming, photoshop, home videos, spread sheets etc? Would TR Ultima give me mor headroom? ( Ulltra extreeme wont fit)

[Mister2]

Just put a L727B in a P5K-E. Gave it 1.4v and it went to 3.6GHz without a hiccup. Will push for more later, find out just how fast she can go, and update then.

My L737B, 10C water:


4.2Ghz prime:


I did some 3D benchies at 4.35Ghz.

[Exal]

Does anyone have any info on L731A963? Just got that in the mail today, xeon x3220 g0 stepping

[most_wanted]

Yesterday I lapped my hot L740A740. And now with 10°C less the daily @ 3800mhz is a must!!



3600mhz with 1,28V it's about 37°C idle and 50°C full under Prime95.

[Eldonko]

Nice!

[Talwin]

Just finished my 3.6ghz Run on prime.



and CPUZ Validation

stats are on pic and in signature.

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

going to lap and install my L739A459 tonight, anyone have this stepping yet?

i hope it clocks as well as the L737

L737B064

It's not the max, just the daily config:

F9 bios is working great with P35-DS4 Rev1.0. Loadline calibration enabled I gained few MHz with same vcore compared to bios F6.

Surely you don't need that much Vcore to get you to 3.8GHz???? You have a very low VID Q6600 so I would say you could do it at 1.30V or less.

Surely you are thinking of 3.6GHz not 3.8GHz....


If not, d like to see some <1.3v - 3.8Ghz results.

No, 3.8GHz since that's what his screenshot is showing, not 3.6GHz.

1.392V for 3.8GHz just seems high for a very low VID Q6600. At 1.4GHz I would expect 3.9GHz if the yield is on par with the VID.

I have not seen many (1 I think) that would do 3.8g at 1.4v.

I think he has an excellent chip there, sure 4GHz is attainable with reasonable voltage. I've seen few 1.200V VID chips and even they couldn't get primestable 3.8GHZ below 1.4V

But you said

You have a very low VID Q6600 so I would say you could do it (3800) at 1.30V or less.

Ive not seen any 3.8Ghz under 1.3v without chiller/subzero.

If you have, i would like to see some links.

[road-runner]

Anyone have a L738B233? I just got one going to put it together shortly...
