I found it weird when i fail to find overclocking thread on this yorkfield series , therefore i open this thread after 5minutes of searching.
Let dedicated this thread to Intel Quadies 45nm ( Codename : Yorkfield ) .

Here the complete Yorkfield family list

C2Q 45nm users, come in and show me you break 4.0ghz barrier with your quad . I cant even break 3.5ghz properly with my X3320. Going to try harder later by pump up the vcore.

Technically, it's tough to get over 450fsb on quads. Even to stablised it on 440fsb is not easy

Yea i was kinda disappointed because i was aiming for 4.0ghz just like my E7200. But stuck at 444FSB at the moment.

LOL! 7.5x on X3320 is PITA to OC till 4Ghz. or should i say impossible. it's FSB wall of that proc, around 440 - 470.

i just tested my X3320 today, FSB wall at 450. still priming at 1.225V vCore (idle: 1.216; load: 1.200)

i meant X3320 FSB wall is 440-460. 450 is specifically for my proc. at least below 1.218V load. will try 2.5V later

Finally got your 45nm proc! Cool!

What mobo are you using?

My P35-DS3 seems to be incompatible with it, had to return it

hehe, tested the proc throughly but seem like it hitting FSB wall VERY fast.

450 at 1.2375V Bios (idle: 1.232; load: 1.216). fully stable after priming few hours, few loops of 3DM06

Using P35-DS3P v1.0 with F11 bios. new bios support 45nm cpu. and i noticed that the precision for vCore, vMem, etc has been increased. very precise compare to earlier bios. loadline calibration also available O_o

Wow! Nice..... too bad my P35-DS3 couldn't run it well

I was running at 3.26Ghz at 1.175v Bios!!! Stable in prime95 for 6hours but not stable when folding...

Had to return the proc to seller......

Damn it seem like going to 460FSB is not possible for me even i pump to 1.5v. But there is a guy at garage sales with the same X3320 doing 480FSB at only 1.3v .

VTT and GTL Ref is the key

Never really try to clock a quad through
