Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

[bigwill68]

What is the maximum voltage for these CPU's please?

what you asking factory max or the max someone has had it in the Oc'd stage?
mean was 1.328v at 3.91ghz at over 4 i gotta go pass the factory volts of 1.362v
to even get 4.0..i gotta work that some more when i build my system back

Maximum voltage as recommended by Intel! I thought it was 1.45v

Pumping some more fsb at 8,5 multi, damn i love this mem

1.45 is the rated max according to intels data sheet. Im not sure where people are getting 1.3625 from, I havent seen anything from intel saying thats the max. The only thing I can think of is people see the max VID rating being 1.3625 and think that is Vcore.

If I am not mistaken on the early co chips 1.3625 was the max but on the eo's it is 1.45v. If I am wrong I will put my co e8400 back in for more testing lol. It was a very good chip.

so your saying the Total Max volts on the 45nm chips are 1.45v can you link me to a Intel data sheet to prove that by intel volt specs for me to see? i have
always seen the voltage limits between these numbers low 0.85V – 1.3625V limit high b4 it frys or be fryed after long time of over volting it...I wanna see that sheet your talking about...

Thanks
