Increasing CPU PLL and NB vcore doesn't do much with quads except increase the stress on the board. I can get the Q6600 to run around 450FSB with the 9x multi but it is not prime95 stable. Hell, it isn't even 32M Pi stable. But I am not done trying yet. These are just my initial findings. I am sure the QX9650 will work better than the 2 I mentioned but I certainly am not going to spend $1000 to find out.
