Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

[papatsonis]

after setting 3600 the wolf wakes up slowly slowly :P, eager for more... but have obvious difficulties to raise fsb with 4 dimms on x38-dq6. After trial & error , i found the most stable GTLREf settings for 425 fsb and minimum voltages (VTT +0.1/1.21v, MCH +0.075/1.33v) , to be GTLREF 1 : +3% , GTLREF 2 :-9% , kinda weird ?? , such Voltage Delta between these two , is reported to shorten chip's life? , assuming most ppl use a plain 0.63% (or equivalent, both at -3% in a GB board)
ty in advance again


EDIT : more VTT :s (+0.1)
