That VCore is nuts. Amazing. My E8400 needs 1.375 to do that speed now....

Are there any stuck sensors or weird temps ? Anyone noticed something in particular... if these do 4.5 at the same volts as some E8400's do 4ghz I might go for one...( so 1.35 max )
Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved
Remark : They call me Pro AsusSaaya yupp, I agree

Q820A602 batch here and one stuck sensor I'm afraid.
Lian-Li PC-P80 Armorsuit 2600k Max4 Extreme-Z GTX 580 DC2 8gb Mushkin 2133 (996996) 2xCorsair Force GT Raid0 2x WD Black 1TB Raid0 Noctua NH-D14 (USB DAC) Argon HA2 HD650 AX1200
Mine runs very hot, 47c idle, default 1.16v.
My e6850 ran at 32 idle with 1.42v. Its taking 1.3v to get to a stable 4250ghz but idle is 64c and load temps are 88c+! The most unfortunate part tho is when I got high temps, instead of returning it, I lapped it. It reduced temps 3c but of course killed the warranty.
Batch Q820R405
Btw, after lapping, I have a nickel-sized copper spot in the middle, so concave c2d's perhaps are a thing of the past.

Im thinking about getting E8600, as my E8500 is pretty crap even though my batch is supposed to me good. But let's see. Want watercooling aswell.

Great results, though I don't know why it's $279.99 retail... I can get a Q9450 at Microcenter for that much... Always thought the pricing of the Wolfdales was a little out of whack.

My baby should arrive Monday or Tuesday - Gave in after seeing it OC to 6GHZ at i34

I have a Q820A405 that runs kinda hot at idle, but not that bad. Load temps max = 61c at 4.5ghz. It also Orthos blend Pr 9 stable 2 hrs at 4.5ghz with only 1.33vcore.
Maybe you've got a bad mount, really hot ambients, bad cooler or something. Either that or it's just not a great one. But I figured I'd tell you mine of the same batch is doing great.
Got the same batch as this. http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=400587Just got mine today. Batch number is Q820A599.
what voltage did you use maxxx ?
