*Official Retail G0 Q6600 Overclocking Thread*

[GripS]

My second tank guys G0 arrived today. It is the exact same batch as my first tank guys G0. L724A760. Both do the exact same (3700mhz 1.45v) on my EVGA 680i. Same temps and all. Identical twins!!!!

I have the very same batch. I'm stuck @ 3.4ghz with 1.4v right now (8x425). I'm curios if i were to drop this in a 680i or P35 based board that i would be able to get higher on lower volts.

hmmmm seems like the 724's are good chips, my 723 just aint cutting it.
at first i thought it was the board, now i think it might be the chip?

all i know is not everyone that gets/has a GO is hitting 3.6 and above on air.

Not everyone. Right now temps are prohibiting me from getting higher then where i'm at now. 3.5ghz @ 1.43 volts i was getting past the 70C mark. A little too hot for my liking. This is using a Scythe Infinity with 2x120mm fans in push/pull config. @ 1.4v the max temp is 64C under prime load. I guess i need to look into Scythe mounting mod. I'm currently using the crappy standard 775 socket retention push pin's that came with it. This weekend i will go to the hardware store to get what i need for the bolt through method.
