I did what most OCers do but due to my knowledge isnt as vast as u guys. I will give out the details

Vcore : 1.26
vtt : 1.54
pll : 1.26
dram volt : 1.9
any more infos, just ask me

The bolded.. that seem not right. R u sure?
Did u use the old power supply that involved in the lightning tragedy? I suggest that u try other PSU. It could be your PSU.

bro bryan, although i know tht proc are literally the most non effected hardware in terms of nature disasater unless of course some high generated voltage did overburn it. But if u say kill it off, hw would i be able to explain to them and is this gonna give alot of hustle work ? sorry,,just to new abt killing off a proc using IBT

bro tech, if lets say i sent the proc to Intel and inform them like what u told me. Will they take the proc for their own testing to confirm or just RMA it and wait for a new one ?

Psu is fine, did a testing on other rig. Its just tht i forgot which is which since i didnt OC for quite sometime after the RMA mobo came in and failed to OC. Any info, do ask me. Thx for ur concern

Hmm... btw killing your proc using IBT stressing isnt a great idea... you could kill your RAM and motherboard in the process...

Ok... put everything in stock and stress your PSU using OCCT for 15 minutes... report back to me...
What's your stock CPU VID?

Ok. Seems that the PSU is fine. So the question is which is the culprit? its either motherboard, RAM or processor?

right now, lower the multiplier to 8 and run an IBT stress test at the last stable-unstable FSB with your previous other stable settings(mem clock/mem timings/voltages). I want to make sure its either the proc or the motherboard.

What's your PL setting when overclocked at 360FSB?

hmm... hmm.gif

If u don't mind do some more experiments...
Try to increase the FSB become 3.0GHz (370X8) and run the stability test... Keep increasing the FSB until u achieve unstable FSB. U may test it with different multi.. let say 7.

If u can't push your processor above 3.0GHz, that's mean something is wrong with the processor.... I'd say it's time to RMA the proc...
Just for your reference, my Q9550 C1(default VID is 1.15V) doesnt need any core voltage increment and stable when clock at 3.0GHz. I believe your Q9550 E0 can do abit better... i mean when your processor is in perfect condition.
