Hey guys,
I'm trying to stabilize my Q9650 on my EP45-UD3P v1.6. I am mostly stable but temps are a major issue for me. I have load temps in the 80-90C range (ouch!!!). I am waiting for my Megahalems to show up but until then, I'm stuck using this crappy Antec cooler, it was the only thing I could find locally that was 1/2way decent.
Here are the settings I'm playing with, can anybody help me out with which of these have the most effect on loaded temps? I am trying to shave off as much voltage as possible to keep the box from melting down.
Q9650 @9x478 = 4.3ghz
vCore 1.375
cpu term 1.30
cpu PLL 1.57
cpu Ref .848
MCH core 1.34
MCH Ref .863
MCH / DRAM 1.110
I think I read that some people are lowering their Vcore and upping the CPU term, but now I can't find that thread for some reason. Are there any way to adjust GTLs per-core on this mobo? There doesn't seem to be but maybe I have to use a custom bios?? Currently I'm using the FDa beta.
