Have a look here for what someone else had tested....

Well thanks for the inputs guys. The thing is I think I will go ahead and get the Q9450 and see where can it go in the DFI LP X38-TR2.

I always like less volts and cool compared to the hot Q6600.

I feel like if I buy a q6600 with a 1.20v Vid for 300 I could get a q9450 for $49 more...

And as I said my Quad wont go above 450Mhz x 9 in this board thats disappointing. Probably I will have better luck with the new 45nm cpu's and as you got it into 500fsb mark thats not impossible.
