Q9450 OC / Temps / Settings

[003]

The voltage reading is correct after vdroop I use a Maximus formula X38 flashed rampage bios 0403. The vcore set in bios is 1.275v and it drops to 1.216v load that I am counting as vcore? My intentions was not to taunt u I was only showing what my new cpu could do. I booted windows in 4ghz 1.4v vios set but it requiers insane vBN voltage and it is not that stable either I can run a 3dmark06 perhaps if I am lucky. T

he other problem I have is that I am running 4 sticks of ram that means I really need to push the vNB alot to not get thoose random reboots in Vista but with 2 ram sticks it is eaiser to overclock and get it stable. 475 fsb with 4 sticks is ok though and my cpu is completly stable prime blend with 1.28v vcore after vdroop 1.3v in bios set. Need 1.55v + on vNB though for 475 fsb which is bad imo :P

Ok... well thats still a damn good chip I need 1.40625v for 3.6GHz, and ~1.45v for 3.8GHz. I can POST but not boot at 4.0GHz. I also have 4 sticks of RAM, 2gb x4.
