Thanks

I'd have to agree, nothing is better for quads

very nice and very cool !!!

**lesstutrey** · 08-02-2009, 07:12 PM

kicking a q6600 around still, i love it. I got two i've been playing with for years, unfortunately i only have one stage for cooling, and no dewar.

**GeorgeStorm** · 08-03-2009, 12:41 PM

Nice going!
Thats a great cpu,
Interesting to see what you can do when colder and only 2 cores.

**Gaul** · 08-04-2009, 06:20 PM

Mine only can touch 4.15 GH with TRUX !!

**Glow9** · 08-04-2009, 08:58 PM

Hehehe 4:20

very nice clock for a quad. gotta love the time in the SS as well, i think that had something to do with it :p

I used my Gigabyte UD3R, which i'm amazed still worked since some of the CAP legs were burnt out around the CPU.

On hwbot, 11th in the world, 1st in Australia, 2nd best on 4 cores.

I started to run out of time, so next time we'll use LN2 on the CPU and dice on the NB. I'll also remember to disable some cores to see what I get.

I forgot to take a screenshot at 4.976GHz, however I got one at 4.932GHz.

Thanks

OH GOD !!!! Send me that Q6600 now !

Those are some impressive results man, im serious (well, i thinked you guessed it).

Anyways, i wanted to tell mine is a 1.325v VID one... not very lucky i have to admit. It still does 9x400=3600Mhz with 1.5v (havent tried higher with my WaterCooling system). I'm disapointed i couldnt reach 4gigs but now you made me even more disapointed ! thanks

I just had one question : what is your VID and your BATCH ? I'm very curious

Im looking forward for the next step in OC, good luck, cheers

Awesome mate!!!

Even better with a damaged board at that! Go Gigabyte!!!

Keep me updated with your Ln2 results!

**fatguy1992** · 08-10-2009, 12:23 PM

Thanks everyone, the VID is 1.2375v, however it does 0.95vcore @ stock GHz. The batch number is L747A437.

**Wh!te Sh4dow** · 08-10-2009, 01:10 PM

that is actually one of the first G0 (SLACR) steps, isnt it ? i found out that from the B3, all G0 were great, but by the time, they became worse. Probably because intel left the quality aside and knew that the Q6600 had a good image and people would buy one... a shame

**AlmightyCushion** · 08-13-2009, 04:13 AM

Fair play lads. That's some impressive overclocking.

well....lol

mine work at 3600 with 1,21v rock solid i did 5ghz validation

max fsb 570 lol

Guys come on, how come you all got awsome quad cores when mine needs 1.5v to reach 3.6ghz under damn water ???

i really aint lucky, and my VID is awful

Mine is in the newer packaging, with the batch : L811B323 (VID = 1.325v)
my brother has one in the older packaging, batch : L738B427 (Vid = 1.278 or something like that).

Do you think his Q6600 overclocks well ? :P i'm curious to find out (he doesnt overclock so i could change my Q6600 against his)

thanks for reply

**KanGaXx** · 08-13-2009, 05:38 AM

mine have 1,20VID

**fatguy1992** · 08-13-2009, 11:54 AM

Very nice

What cooling and vcore?

**Sailindawg** · 08-13-2009, 01:21 PM

65 nm lives!! Excellent job with the Q6600! That's one heck of an overclock.

Luck of the draw. Mine blows as well and it's also under water! Think it drowned!

Will be putting in a Q9650 tonight and playing around with that.

CB= -125° temps ln2 ~ 120° @ 1,75VCORE

**randa** · 08-18-2009, 04:53 AM

^^fatguy1992^^ wow.... you've got a real amazing stuff ..man >>>> bring it to me and i'll never ever refuse it ....

**angoholic** · 08-18-2009, 07:40 AM

nice start

on ln2 you can expect about 570MHz FSB

**fatguy1992** · 08-18-2009, 12:05 PM

Thanks

All going well it will be under LN2 within the next two weeks

**Wh!te Sh4dow** · 08-18-2009, 12:41 PM

well keep it up, and post news as soon as you're done !

i'm extremely curious

**fatguy1992** · 08-18-2009, 12:46 PM

Don't worry I will

I'll have 3 mobo's to test it on, UD3R, RE and P5K Deluxe

**angoholic** · 08-18-2009, 02:42 PM

Curious what fsb you can hit with the GB. The enabled cores are not that interesting because that depends only on the cpu and not the board..try 2 or one..the fsb is impressive enough for that old quad
