[Andren83]

Hi everyone, this is my first post and i apologize for my english but i'm italian not my fault anyway lol

I have a question to the "Batch Experts". I just ordered a Q9550 SLB8W with this batch "L847C200"

Could someone tell me what can i expect in oc with this batch? is it a good or bad one? i'm still a bit confused about this batch story...

thx all

I'm not a "Batch expert" lol , but you can check your VID using CoreTemp:
-If your VID is lower than 1.2000v (lowest in this thread is 1.1375) then you're having a golden batch CPU .
-If your VID is around 1.2500v, you're having a CPU.
Keep in mind that a high VID CPU doesn't always OC badly, some with high VID can OC very well (my old E6600 with 1.325 VID can make 3.6Ghz with stockfan), but this case is rare .

/My Q9550 L848C310 1.2125VID is now running at 450*8.5=3825Mhz 24/7 completely stable with 1.2250v in BIOS (1.2000v in CPU-Z).

I know how to check the VID with CoreTemp but i ain't got the cpu with me yet that's the reason why i asked.. im thrilling to know if my batch is a good or bad one

I already have a Q9650 L845B562 that make 4ghz with 1,3v but im not so satisfied about it so i'm looking for luck with this new Q9550 L847C200 and in case the "baby" will do it better i think im gonna sell my Q9650

Your cpu rocks for me i guess u can reach 4ghz staying under 1,3v (thats my aim)
