Retail E8600 Overclock, Temps, Settings Thread

[Geebs]

Reverted to stock default settings - idle temps are still the same 35 c for me - that's lapped cpu and with a TRUE - so I guess it would probably idle 40-45 unlapped on a stock cooler.

My cpu isn't lapped, but my TRUE is, thanks to your help and links... And I also have the washer mod going. I can only imagine what i would be at with the stock cooler...

Why do you suppose there's such a difference in vID's? I have seen other report 1.25v on theirs... I didn't think there could be so many different revisions of the same chip so soon.

Regardless, hell, even quad cores don't idle as high as mine. I can't even stress test mine without exceeding the max temp.

I know it's prolly a stupid question, but I'm grasping at straws here... do you lot have thermal management enabled in the BIOS? Or C1E? I do not, nor have I ever...
