Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

Hey Orbiter,

You wont need a fan to run 4 to 4.1Ghz, I would only use it for FSB's around 500 or above that.

If you don't wanna remove the original cover you can just buy 2 little CoolJags that have 18CFM in Push-Pull (side-by-side) 6v and you're fine!

If removing original heat sink (hot blow-dryer and lots of Patience) you will only need a 50 or 60mm fan on top.

Ok Jor3lBR thank you

I'm using Jor3lBR's 4400 template . I was 12hours Blend and 13hrs Small FFT with his settings. I bumped vtt, pll, mch and vcore all up 1 notch and ive been priming for 4 hours now @ 495FSB 4455MHz.

We should probably move this discussion over to the UD3 thread now.

Here is my NB cooling..

Nice setup ya got there nugzo & very nice going on the OC too

I Think I'd be more than happy with a quick test at 4.400GHz when I get mine, then for 24/7 I think around 4.0 - 4.2Ghz would be fine.
