    Personally I favor 1 hour, but in this format, what ever they wan't. The longer the better I supose for more bragging rights.
    I would say the spirit of this thread is more toward temps than stability. I just want to be convinced you heated the chips up.
    I do know given extended time temps will rise a few more °C than you might see at the hour mark.

    But that rule is made in the spirit of testing, and recomendations to members. I believe that to be a needed standard in that case.

    This is more about pride in ones system, and the water cooled temps they are currently enjoying in thier home environment.
    I really didn't want to make this a scientific Q6600 temp grid thread, nor prove anything.
    I just would like a spot to let us water cooled folks chirp up a bit about our low temps.

    If the air cooled members come over for a visit, and we don't have any examples posted of what any water cooled members are getting for temps, how can we let the world know that water cooled boards have the potential to have super temps?

    The Q6600 is a pretty common chip now too, and a heat thrower.

    It's good for the business to let us brag.

    You can pick the format...
    Add in any warnings you would like in the OP...
    I'm easy going...

    I just changed the title to: 'The Un-Official Q6600 Chest Pounding Proves Nothing Water Cooled Temp Thread!'
    That might help to clear things up some?

    I wouldn't want to misslead the commoners to think they could hit my temps anyway..
    The members that run their rig in a 60°F basement like me, are few and far in between I'm guessing?

    All I ask is that your honest with whatever you post.

    i really don't think Everest is the most accurate application :P
    it would be interesting to see the difference
    I am on Everest version 4.20.1227BETA and believe it to be very accurate with the Maximus SE.
    I run Vista64, and don't want to disable my driver signing to run Coretemp.
