Some early testing on my "new" Q822A435.
Not as good as my old Q822A435 but still capable of running Prime at 4.5GHz.
Maybe with some tuning of the GTL voltages i might be able to lower the Vcore some.
Still pretty happy with this.

Bought my E8600 used. Recently went to Q9650 and kinda want to go back because I can't really get over 457fsb vs 550.

If you don't mind hacked SLI on legacy Intel, I would recommend selling your board for a gigabyte UD3x series board and make that quad scream.

I've tried really juicing the voltage high but nothing seems to stop the crashes after a handful of linx loops. My coolant is reaching 41C, so I may be at the limit of what I can do with my water cooler(3x 120mm sr1-120's).
Where can I find the sli hack? I only see the initial news, and then everyone saying the dev disappeared and it's not available.
Anyway, I still have my e8600 sitting right here... But really... 4.4ghz vs 4.11ghz... Not to big a difference... Although the whole 457 fsb vs 550 fsb is annoying.

Hey guys,
Advance apologies for making a slightly "noob" post, but I just wanted some general advice on overclocking my E8600. Some info:
Chip: SLB9L Malay, Q820A601, VID=1.200V (from CoreTemp)
Board: DFI LP LT X38-T2R, latest BIOS
RAM: 2 x 2GB OCZ Blade LV PC2-9200
Cooler: Zalman CNPS9700-NT
I'm just wondering if you guys can give me a ball park speed/voltage I should be aiming for to use the machine 24/7 long term. And any little tips/tricks which have arisen from this thread (sorry I haven't read it all!).
Cheers,
Su
P.S. Also, I noticed a lot of you disable VDroop control - why is this?

no matter what your 790i requires more juice +.05-.1
500fsb is a new ballgameits the big bang
my rex needed extreme voltages for 500fsb

intel says to dissable vdroop to protect cpu
well i ennabled vdroop on dfi

zsamz, thanks for that mini guide
Seems you have (or had?) the same motherboard as medid you notice any increase in stability when you had VDroop control enabled? Also I see you ran 4 x RAM sticks at 1200MHz
I'm thinking of getting another set of Blades to make 8GB (as I'll be keeping this rig for a long time!).
Cheers,
Su

I just picked up an 8600 Q223A221 07/31/08 not sure of vid yet.
I have not decided whether to mate it with the Asus S2E or 780i yet.
Has anybody got experience with this batch?

I've been through all the pages here and unless I missed it I don't see one 8600 that has Q223 all seem to start with Q222.
Is it possible that everyone here has sought out the specific Q222 instead of the Q223's. Is there something wrong with them? In any case once I get it installed I'll report back what I can do with it.
You sure it's Q222? I have a Q822 --> 8= 2008 22=week 22.

Got bored. More low voltage action.
4.2ghz used to take my golden e8400 C0 1.36v.
And this is less than the default 1.25v on most motherboards(q820a405):

Wow that is low. I need to get mine installed and see what it's VID is but I want to lap my TRUE first and need the time to do it.
