    Hey guys, got my Q9650 from Newegg on Monday batch #L834B631.


    Edit: VID for this chips is 1.2500 using coretemp 0.99.4 and it appears I might have some stuck temp sensors. Right now I am still testing and sometimes they work at load and sometimes all they read is 32-34-34-35 at idle and full load. So far they have never read anything lower then 32-34-34-35 but I have at least got them to rise above that at full load under OCCT 2.0.1. Later today I will try 4.05ghz and post some screen shots. I am hoping this max VID chip ends up being a decent overclocker. My goal is 4.2ghz stable on air under 60-65C.

    First test I ran was at stock speed 9x333 just to get a slight judge for it. CPU Vcore was at Auto with 1.20NB 1.26VTT(Higher then I needed) 1.52PLL. At full load CPUZ read 1.24vcore, 45C full load, which means it will probably be stable at ~1.19v for 3.0ghz. Tonight I will try for either 8x500 to see what my max FSB is or 9x450 to see what Vcore I need for 4.05ghz. I should know my tonight how well this thing will OC.
