Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

[Sean_UK]

These week 47Cs are hard to get. Anyone have any experience with this batch?

Hi, I have two week 47C's, I dont have P45 mobo to hand for testing (Yet), just two P35's; ASUS P5K Deluxe and MSI Neo2-FR.

*VID 1.18750, 445x9 4GHz, 1.216v Prime95 & IntelBurnTest stable
*VID 1.16250, 445x9 4GHz, 1.280v Prime95 & IntelBurnTest stable

Also aquired 3rd Q9650 (L846B802) with 1.1000VID : Have yet to test this one in any great length, sadly the early results are nothing to get excited about. I guess it's safe to assume all 3 might fair a dam site better voltage wise when tested via high quality P45 motherboard?

Thx for proving that a low VID isn't directly linked to being able to use a low Vcore for the same clockspeed. P35 still is a nice performer but is limited by the bios design. Higher FSB and better fine tweaking (voltages , GTL's, RAM settings) makes P45 better. It allowed me to drop Vcore some, but don' expect miracles from it. (came from P5K Dlx to P5Q Dlx)

Also aquired 3rd Q9650 (L846B802) with 1.1000VID

What is the min VID on that chip?

[Sean_UK]

What is the min VID on that chip?

CPU-Z reads 1.080v @ stock and limited by P35 Neo2-FR BIOS, since I cant set voltage any lower. P5K Deluxe has slightly more flexable BIOS, so once I get time for some decent testing in coming weeks I'll share the results and pic's etc. Might even have a quality P45 Mobo to play with by then

1.1875 VID chip is stable on P5K @ stock clocks with 0.976v, no idea is that's good or not?

Well i searched high and low and finally found myself a batch# L847C153. These week 47Cs are hard to get. Anyone have any experience with this batch? Ill post some results when I get it.

I have batch#L847C037, VID 1.175v, it is the best chip I have had so far. 4500mhz 10hrs Prime blend stable 1.392v. Only downfall is it runs very warm, will need very good cooling with these low vid chips.

No, I asked for the min VID, it will be listed in realtemp like this.

[Sean_UK]

it will be listed in realtemp

Ah well you never mentioned Realtemp Just dl it and reads 1.1000 min, 1.2750 max, which might explain why it's not producing results anywhere near expected - so why would Core Temp 0.99.5 show 1.1000 VID even under load if it's not?

The other two Q9650's are showing a Real Temp max VID to match Core Temp's VID reading...

I Think it is a coretemp bug. I also thought my Q9650 was a 1,1 VID but it is actually a 1.3 VID with a minimum VID of 1.1. It does read it correct sometimes. I think it displays the min VID instead of the max VID.

yep, I had your batch specifically written down, I tried to get as close to 037 as I could...L847C153 is close enough I think.

[andressergio]

Well mates beated my own SPI1M record it was a matter of wait a cool day



Cheers all
Sergio

[andressergio]

And also beated my 3Dm06 record



Cheers !

Nice! Congrats Sergio!

[andressergio]

Nice! Congrats Sergio!

thanks mate im happy now

thanks mate im happy now

#2 ON hWbOT Well Done Sergio
I better get my SuperPi scores lowered!

Great job, I had one last Pi run left but with a little GUI adjustment (I.E. silver Luna and background) it shouldn't stand much of a chance.

Nice to see you're back with some more wPrime1024M.
How's the heat output at 1.45V?

Very nice Sergio. Great job my friend.

Congrats on the new chip. Hope it clocks well for you.

Great job on HWBot with Superpi Sergio! Now you I am #6, time to bench it again!
Keep up the good work! Run Wprime for HWBot!

[The Viper]

Congrats on the new chip. Hope it clocks well for you.

early results arent as good as I would like them. CoreTemp says I have a vid of
1.2375. Priming at 4.0Ghz got me a restart after a few minutes with 1.20V. But I havent messed with GTLs at all, this is my 1st quad core

[Jor3lBR]

Nice to see you're back with some more wPrime1024M.
How's the heat output at 1.45V?

The heat is almost overwhelming! From 1.48 to 1.55v if the water isn't around 10oC it's a no go, when that wPrime1024m hits 90% the processor is already about to pop.

[andressergio]

Very nice Sergio. Great job my friend.

Thank you Tom

[andressergio]

Now if you promise not to LOL i will show you the Uruguayan method of benching without phase or chiller, etc

This first pics are on fresh air 17C entering from the window from a second floor apartment on a stormy day





This last is benching on AC at 10C air conditioner and 30C outside
