Retail Q9650 Overclocking Thread

[greg.m]

@greg , for 450fsb the RF how much MCH needs? (with x38-dq6 , 450fsb/1200ram8gb , needs max vmch-1.625 for questionable stability... , for 445/1187, just 5 mhz only lower.. is 9hrs linx stable with 1.525)

GUYS, how much nbv needs someone with X38-DQ6 @ 450fsb + 1200 8gb ram


Ihave a friend with maximus formula X38 and he needs crazy nbvolts to run his system stable @ much lower clocks - something like 1.69-1.73. But the thing is that he runs his system with these crazy volts for over 2 years now.
My guess is that you can safely run with up to 1.70nbv IF you can keep nb cool.
