Nice one !

Here is my 24/7 on AIR. Q820A405. I know a lot of you will say this is too much voltage and heat for 24/7 use.... but we'll see. 1.44 in bios, 1.46v windows. Max temp during 19hours of small FFT was 76c. During gaming i may hit 55c tops. Idle at low to mid 30s.

Ive found that everest v4.60 now shows both core temps and core 2 is now unstuck there is only occt and everest v4.50 that show the core as stuck....
Anyone else had this???

My E8600 Q822A435 under ln2 at -128°C http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=427484

Aquamark3 with a MSI 4870X2 which is unfortunately mine

Lots of things could have been optimised, but my p5e3 Premium got condensation, and I prefered to stop... I wish another ln2 session comes asap

Impressive, push that baby some more.

Nice one ToyTen. Your GPU can be run at 850/950 when benching Aquamark, it should run at that fairly easy for such a short run.

**Zeus** · 10-06-2008, 12:25 PM

Impresive stuff ToyTen mate!

Also Venom-Crusher, you have a chip to die for, most excellent on plain watercooling!!

My E8600 under SS (quite hot one- temperatures reached down to 30C

)

Problem is in motherboard (having stability issues over 415FSB, because I got error in superPI at 16round when was between 5550 and 5700mhz...) Must get a new mobo...

Batch Q820A405 packdate 07/17/2008.Lapped TRUE with push n pull Yateloons 77CFM each idle temps of 48 to 51c. Load of 67c Why are my temps so high.Bios is set to 1.285v and it has a VID of 1.165v

**~~Zucker2k~~** · 10-12-2008, 02:47 PM

Low vid chips usually run hotter. I'm sure you've checked the seating? Otherwise, reseat the cooler and make sure there is good contact; also, is the ihs concave, convex?

**GLENBOY** · 10-12-2008, 03:57 PM

zucker is right like the e8500s the ones that take low volts to run high cpu speed run hot

**SteveSuk** · 10-15-2008, 05:43 AM

i want to get the e8600, but dont know what the best mb is to get?
i wont be running SLI, any recommendations? i wanna OC!!

**~~Zucker2k~~** · 10-15-2008, 06:24 AM

Get the new p45 mobo from Gigabyte, the UD3P, cheap and fast.

So true!

I got nice example just running here

My Q9550 whit vid 1.2500, not best vid that you can get but woah, it runs nice cool, to get over 70c i needed 1.41V and Intelburner Whit maxium ram test

Stock voltage and 3.4Ghz, in idle it went to 27c whit 23c ambient

**PCTools** · 10-15-2008, 08:04 AM

Well, I just sold my E8500 ($150) and ordered the E8600 from Newegg. Hopefully, I will get a good batch....

The old E8500 was not to shabby.

Good luck whit that!

**WhiteFireDragon** · 10-17-2008, 11:53 PM

does anyone know if there will be a higher binned dual core than e8600 later on? perhaps e8700?

I should'nt think there will be. What i would like to see though, is a Multi unlocked version like the quad Extreme's. If ever there was a cpu crying out for a multi unlocked version, it's the E8600.

**OC4/3** · 10-18-2008, 07:37 AM

Any idea on Q820A4x4 with 11 being the last 2 number from wafer code??

**The Viper** · 10-18-2008, 01:24 PM

Q823A234, not really a steller performer, at least not was I was hoping for, picked this up at Newegg. I'm gonna exchange it and see if I get lucky. I thought I might have some stability at this speed, but after 16minutes of Orthos, it restarted my comp. Maybe its my mobo, my board doesnt officially support the E0s yet.
