I have only owned two C2Quads in my life and both were Q6700's with VID of 1.3250(Highest I ever heard of) and both were crappy overclockers . I seen plenty of people with lower VID Q6600 and Q6700 chips get much better results on equal hardware and settings. I have read through this thread and seen screenshots of Coretemp showing VID's of 1.10, 1.15, 1.875, 1.225, and 1.25 for the Q9650, are these false readings?
