u too fast, link was fixed at 8:44....lol

That's what happens with instant email updates

I'll remove the post

sweet!

what is your voltage in bios and real in speedfan under load?

**DaveXensen** · 07-31-2007, 09:49 AM

could somebody tell me what are max safe temps to have a G0 running at on load.

i've heard around 80c, but ive also heard no more than 70c

**devilmc** · 07-31-2007, 10:48 AM

guys just one question, i have this dfi nf680i lt with 4CTST521 bios and a Q6600 B3 but i'm not able in any way to set the multiplier to 8x...... i only need to low the multiplier from 9x to 8x for more testing to understand if mine is a cpu frequency problem or a bus problem..... but can't find out how to change it.... i've seen some of you in here are using it at 8x..... could you tell me how (if you have my same board of course)?

**sdumper** · 07-31-2007, 10:56 AM

Just ordered a Q6600 G0 to play with and will be using a P5K Deluxe what are the max FSB folks have been getting with the Q6600/P5K Deluxe combo?
Is 500 FSB now possible (under phase for the CPU but air for the chipset)?

Intel says it's 71C

**sdumper** · 07-31-2007, 11:24 AM

65c for an overclock....

max temps are fine at up tp 80-85c at 100% load....ive had mine running prime for hours at 80c with no problems.

thats what i figured, considering that its 20c away from throttling...and even if it gets to that point, your cpu knows to lower the speed to adjust to a more reasonable temperature...

EVEN THEN, if your temps get higher, your cpu will shutdown. I've heard marvelous things about how robust the core 2 series has been engineered to be. I think 70-80c load is acceptable with enough headroom, considering MOST apps don't stress out your cores like orthos/prime

**idiotekniQues** · 07-31-2007, 12:21 PM

i still havent seen an app get my cores hot like small fft's.

anybody know what does?

for me no game has even gotten one core close to the temps of prime, dvd encoding or converting mass raw files in cs3 either.

?????

Are these thermal thresholds any different than my ES QX6700?
If not then dont go over 65c

That depends on the core stepping. B3 is rated just above 60C en G0 just above 70C.

But later B3's are no different to GO's. My Q6600 B3/stepping 7 has a package date of May 07 and a vid of 1.2750, does 3.2 with 1.3v real (load 48C) and 3.6 with 1.44v real (load 60C) on P5K-Premium....you cant tell me that this chip is any different to a good clocking GO, I mean you think Intel did something differentl between May 07 and July 07 in their production other than add in the GO label.

1.525V in bios. I dont have speed fan installed but both AI Suite
and Everest Indicate ~1.5v At Idle (1.4960) and Under Load (1.5040).

My G0 is here and the P5K Premium arrives Friday, mind posting your bios settings?

**sdumper** · 08-01-2007, 03:39 AM

Its all a moot point if were still capped at low FSB thresholds

Just to run at 4ghz we need 450 FSB which is pretty tough to achieve on most most mobo/quad combos.

Regardless I bought one to see what it could do with a P5K Deluxe...

I agree with you as I have the same one as you.

I used this info in this post: Here

The only thing different was that I adjusted was fsb to 450, memory to 1080, with timings for my ram....Have fun!

**shiznit93** · 08-01-2007, 11:42 AM

Thanks. Btw, did you try 400x9? It should be a little easier on the CPU and you might be able to use less vcore.

**crazyea** · 08-01-2007, 12:47 PM

I wont run like this 24/7, something around 3ghz@1.38 is good for me. As for 400x9, in all the bench's I ran, this combo killed it...so thats why i went that route....I'm gonna try to bring the volts down over the next while....see what happens.

**boogle** · 08-01-2007, 01:14 PM

G0 is different since the errata has changed, some bugs fixed, some bugs added. Apparently some transistors were moved around to spread the heat a little more evenly, removing some hot spots.

Whether overclockabiliy is actually different is up for debate, but it is a different core, albeit only with a few minor changes. Don't forget CPUs, like many things are produced on a production line - so changing the core to a slightly different design can be done with minimal disruption. Update the machines with the new layout, and let them do the rest.

**bfox2** · 08-02-2007, 09:15 PM

Ive got mine (g0),just came in today, up to 3.5ghz on 1.33v after vdroop on ip-35 pro. Its hovering around 55-57C on abits uguru temp monitor. Core temp seems to crash my computer, even at stock settings..

been priming stable for a while now.

I need to work on my memory. Its gskill pc-6400 and it fails prime anywhere past like 900mhz... I have it at 2.25v, I am scared to take it higher though people are reporting 1100mhz at like 2.35v.

ur temps are about 74c in coretemp, my uguru panel says 46c under load, and coretemp says 63c, so difference of 17c.

dont look at my sig, this is for one of the b3 quad cores i have in one of the computers watercooled. the cpu is at 3.2 at 1.33 loaded/
