Hey, its been a while...
Picked up a Q6600 G0 L720B058 from Scan the other week and have been running it at 1.38v for 3.5GHz on my Commando so far, but the temps were on the high side:- 72c at full load under a Tuniq Tower 120.
389 x 9 (3.5GHz)
Vcore 1.38v
Idle 39c
Loaded Small FFT's 72c
Anyway, obviously temps were holding me back quite a bit so I Lapped the Q6600 and didn't see any noticeable improvement so I bit the bullet and bought my first watercooling setup:-
D-Tek Fuzion
PA120.3 + Shroud + Nexus Fans
MCW30 Chipset block
1/2" Tygon R3603 tubing
Laing DDC w/ Petra's DDCT-01s Top Combo
With the same ambient I've seen a 16-17c temperature drop when running at the same bios settings and the AS-5 has yet to settle in, I can't believe it made that much of an improvement over the Lapped Tuniq and the whole setup runs much much quieter than the Tuniq... Needless to say I'm pretty impressed!
389 x 9 (3.5GHz)
Vcore 1.38v
Idle 34c
Loaded Small FFT's 56c
I'm going to keep looking for the optimal balance of temps/Mhz so I'll post any interesting results I get when I get them.
Maff
