Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

[CryptiK]

^ thanks. I'll take it further next week when my new board comes. (had to replace ud3r since i'm a goober)

Wow that is warm for that clockspeed. As others have said, new, low vid chips need water I guess.

I don't even try linpack over 4300mhz since it takes me well into the upper 70's. Maybe when it gets really cold here and I can open a window.

Nice, hope the new board is a good one. Yeah its a warm 'new' chip (L847C176) and going higher with clocks and vcore easily pushes temps into upper 70's. I'd need water to go much higher.

Yours being 1.15 VID and running upper 70's on water @ 4300+ is indicative of how hot these things really are.

Yeahh !!! wellcome to the Q9650's world Cryptik

Congrats
Sergio

Thanks Sergio.

CryptiK the true is ok for 4.1
you be amazed how much better a 26$ coolmaster 212 is
1 fan not enough for either cooler you need push pull

At 4.13GHz / 1.256v it hit 80*C so I stopped the test. I will have to try and add another fan next time.
