Q6600 Overclocking Database.

[theteamaqua]

ahh so large it is

[theteamaqua]

I guess I've been spoiled with my 28B. This Q6600 needs 1.55v for 3.6.. I was hoping around 1.45v.. This is a L647F batch. I'm thinking of picking up a different one tomorrow.

Ok, I picked up a L638A666 and it can do 3.6 @ 1.5v. A little better, but not by much.

so would u say that B>A>F ??? how bout G??

so would u say that B>A>F ??? how bout G??

I dont really know how Q6600's batches are. I've only tried two so far. With the C2D, I had 11 E6600's since week 24 came out. And yea the B's definitely show the best voltage/clock settings on C2D from my experience. With these? I dunno, the next A or F could be just as good or not better. We'll have to wait for more users to report.

[theteamaqua]

oh yeha of course within each letter some r better than others like 28B maybe better than 32B .... but 32B > 32A > 32F??? say weeks r the same, would u say B > A > F > G??

Ok guys, quick question, what should we trust for temps, i know coretemp is like 12c higher than speedfan and other temp monitoring programs.

Speedfan and TAT both measures internal core temp but speedfan for me is 13-15 °C cooler than TAT or RMClock. Temp guide for your reference.

I like RMClock the best.

here is my sweet:
Q6600 B3 ES
1.55v on air (scythe infinity) 3900mhz 1M pi, 4ghz valid
and now running prime95 @ 3600mhz 1.43v real
(the cpu is for sale, if sb is interested, drop me a pm)

Still on aircooling

yes, lapped infinity w/ 120mm delta fan

I know there are cinebenches around, but would you people mind posting your cinebench (from stock to oc) results since I find them the most useful ones since I'm working with 3D.

[JC_Denton]

I don't have any screenies now, but I can post my results

L644Gxxx (can't remember the exact FPO)

3200MHz (8x400 - 9x355) @ 1.3475V (real volts)

I haven't test it yet with lower Volts, it might work.

My temps in CoreTemp are 45 Idle, 65 Load.

I have a Tuniq Tower 120 with the stock fan at 1200 RPM.

Orthos Stable with all 4 cores @ priority 5 for many many hours

[Georgypie]

I currently have my q6600 running @3.1 (344x9) @ 1.3v 8 hrs prime stable
If i want to get to 3.2 (356x9) i have to run it @ 1.5v it seems a big jump and im wondering if im doing anything wrong? Do I have to raise anymore voltages except the core?

My spec are
Q6600 (L712A362)
Asus commando (vdroop mod) bios 0803
2 x 1gb G.Skill PC6400 HZ's

Settings
Everthing on auto except
CPU Core volt (1.3)
PCi Freq (100)
PCi Syn (33.33)

Thanks in advance

damn im tempted to buy one ..
hmm xenon or q6600 ?

[theteamaqua]

its "Xeon" not xenon

[jetjaguar]

typo my bad

[NaeKuh]

Hi..I think you will find if you do a simple vdroop mod you will keep your cpu at 3.6 ghz with 1.5 vcore...as the Commando's or mine anyway has a Huge Vdroop under load....

also just try to set fsb to 401 not 400 and see how you go...Mine wont boot windows at between 375 and 400 ..yet from 401 boots up to 455 with 9x multi. 1.6vcore at the 455 fsb.
you can take a look at some simple images here.. http://www.hwbot.org/user.do;jsessio...B3?userId=8636

while your there read up on other peoples Hardware with there commando and volt settings...
Godd Luck Hori

OH SHIET... your wall is EXACTLY where mine is. it wont boot up from 376->399 worth crap no matter how much voltage you give it. :\

[Georgypie]

I have the same problem can we change the mulitplier on the commando?

[jetjaguar]

my q6600 just arrived .. im gonna put it in later tonite

week 46 F stepping
pack date 01 / 18 / 07

[graysky]

week 46 F stepping
pack date 01 / 18 / 07

Congrads, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Where can you read the week x, stepping, etc.? Printed on the chip? CPU-Z?

[jetjaguar]

box

[highoctane]

I guess there can be a pretty big variance with week and pack dates, mine is a L640F with a pack date of 03/20/07.

[theteamaqua]

... F chips .. those F batch r vcore hungry my E6600 need about 1.48v for 3.6GHz on water .. with temp of 43C during full load with Orthos Large priority 9, ... i think after L628B no chip has ever come close to it

[GAR]

my F chip needs only 1.32v for 3.2ghz.....i consider that preety good.
