Q9450 OC / Temps / Settings

[ChaosMinionX]

Sorry to bust your theory, there are too many people on this forum with x38/x48 pushing 45nm cpus to their limits. Some P965 boards, especially the asus commando is the wolfie king. The G33/G35 chipset has proven quite good with quads, x38/x38 are good with all cpus. I cannot say much for everybody, but I can definiely say so for my self and others I've noticed.

Some nice fsb with 4x2GB Ram

Sorry to burst yours, I said Quad core 45nm.

So all that being said I dont know where you get your info that X38 is any better at clocking 45nm Quads over P35. And dualcore I doubt is any different between X38/P35 its probably about the same hitting 4ghz area on the 8400's.

Almost all 8400's have hit 4ghz+ on every board.... it is the Quadcore X3350/Q9450 that have had the least amount of success... X38 for most boards have been capped at 440mhz. There have been limited success in getting a Maximus (x38) over 440mhz.... and I see that your screenshot has a Rampage Formula... is that flashed or a true rampage? Because if its a true rampage I already said they seem to be going over 450mhz with ease.

EDIT: And unless im visiting the wrong XtremeSystems, I havent seen a whole lot of success being reported with what I stated in my original post.
