The E0 Q9550 SLB9V thread (finally!)

[pezcore]

I tried 500x8 and it wouldn't even boot so I put it back

I tested SIX Q9550 E0 with this mobo, the lowest VID was 1.1x and i couldnt get 4Ghz stable with 1.35v, the other five are stable with that vcore.

yup, all because u'r mobo.sorry

@Gaul well then your lucky i guess that you have such a good mobo :P

THANX man....!!

let's me introduce u

Q9550 @ 4.25 GH v 1.35, prime for 3 hours

can you put full template for your settings? and what bios do you use?

You can and can not get 4 Ghz stable? It all depends on FSB and GLT voltage, that’s all

My old P35 board was great with Q6600, it did 480 x 8 with no problems for 24/7, so board was good for 480 fsb, but with 45nm Quad id did only 450, no more. Asus P5K-E have really bad settings for GLT voltage (only 4 settings), so there is no chance to get something good, with Giga P45 UD3R/UDRP it is different story

At first posts I could not get 4 Ghz ok, but after some time of testing and tweaking BIOS I went to 4.2+ Ghz that max Linx ok. After all I can say that GLT voltage is the key for high fsb and also FSB voltage. Even high vcore is not needed as it was with 65nm quads.

templates ? later.....BIOS, default from factory F11.....
