You still didn't get one yet? Bite the bullet and go for it man. : )
I think 8500 will be pretty much a blast.

I haven't had time to do much with the E8500. I just ordered a striker II 780 and a TRUE. I'm pretty sure i'll like the extra speed more than the 4 cores. Untill more games and software take advantage of quads, i think the extra speed will suit me better.Originally Posted by zfactor

My cousin on drums Hi Brian !
What is a common stable setting for E8500? Can it hit 4.5Ghz stable for daily usage? I'm just wondering to see if it makes sense to switch to E8500 from my E8200.

Think it was 1.0750 will post a screenie tomorrow...

Yeah i guess I'll try another striker. The Striker 1 did so well i think i should try the 2. Do you have any other suggestions? SLI and ddr2? I've been toying with the idea of 3 9800gtx's.

Thank You.

I have a question for somebody who is watching this topic frequently. I just want to know which are the worst E8xxx CPUs in terms of max FSB, voltage needed for 3.6/4GHz and so on. And which are the best ones?
My E8400 Q745A822 goes 3.6GHz with default voltage, also max stable with 1.225V is 9x400, it needs 1.375V for 9x445, actually 1.36875V set in BIOS works fine too. I'm currently still in the phase of testing 9x467 and 9x480, but 467 should be stable at 1.4875V, and 480 is stable at 1.55V, just have to try lower voltage, though 1.525V is not enough. Max FSB is 480, sad but true.
So my guess would be average 3.6 and 4GHz capability, and below average FSB, perhaps even one of the worst.
@Tibu: Interesting, max rated voltage is now 1.25V, mine has 1.225V.

Guys I just got done installing the E8400 but I noticed that my temps as reported by the Coretemp program, went up by about 20 degrees celcius at idle (hovering around 50C). Is this normal or did I do a bad mount of my Apogee GT?
use realtemp instead of coretemp for that
I just got my E8400 Batch #Q808A256 3/260/08
4005Mhz is the fastest I can get at 1.41Vcore 1.3Vtt and -12mv -14mv On GTL Not sure how good this is. I wanted to go 4.5 but I think I need more vcore what is the Max Vcore you think I can run ? Cooling isn't a issue for me
Full Load now 35C

testing a new E8400 for me : Q807A124 (unknown batch on google)...4 Ghz stable at 1.21 for the moment
I dont understand how some of you are running your FSB at 445 but running your memory at 534?? I have an option to set my memory higher then my rated FSB but the next step is like DDR-1200.
I want to be able to run 450 x 9 but run my memory at 534 because it can do DDR-1066.

Not sure what your bios looks like but you need to use a 5:6 divider if possible.
new test passed with success : 4.1 at 1.24
Planing to buy one E8400 i can choose between these batches.
Is anyone good of theese ?
