on pure idle it can get as low as 55-60ish on core temp, core die from pc probe/mother board reading doesnt change though.

and urs is quad core...extreme summore...which batch are urs?
i'll be joining the quadcore club...but not the extreme division...normal quad

didnt notice my batch ID, but yea thats what im sayin, theres other quad xtreme users around here and they are doing pretty good on oc.

and whats the difference between the extreme models and normal? i only went for it for the higher factory clock speed XD

extreme model has unlocked multiplier upward and downward. normal one only unlocked downward

way cheaper as well...suited for somebody with small pocket like me

meh the upward multiplier... are pretty much useless most of the time for air coolers >.>

i have to reduce my multiplier to pump up more FSB ftw, but i wonder if i should lower fsb and raise multiplier to have the same clock speed but increased latency... not sure if im stressing my mobo lol

Izzit really hard to overclock E6600 to 3.8GHz or more?
Just curious, becoz not many forumers here willing to o'c to tht speed. Is it becoz our forumers dont wanna o'clock their proc extremely (even have some nice HSF)?

@Quazacolt

Before you thinking on how to clock more, find a way to solve your heat problem first. Your temp is way above any normal standard. You have the money to buy QX but cant get something good to cool it down. Probably you will think I am blunt in my words but I just stating the obvious fact. Cool down your hardware else you are taking a big risk of toasting your hardware.

@InF.anime

No, it is not hard at all to reach 3.8ghz but its do pose some challenge if u want to exceed 4ghz. Anyway, as long you have the proper hardware and most important cooling... It isnt that hard

You have to know that not all processor overclocks well. Some can't even reach 3.5ghz.

mine is e6600 2.4 up to 3.0

cant go up futher,any idea......

You can try 400x8 1.45v 5-5-5-12 2.0v.

im definitely not oc'ing more with that kinda heat. and the heat is just from core temp, core die is pretty cool i must say. unless 50ish celcius is hot

and ill be honest with you, i really dont have money to replace my current heatsink/acquire other cooling solutions. basically 1 shot blew it on my rig, and slowly recoverying from the pocket wound

and i dont mind, ur stating the the truth anyways. this is also the reason why my oc halted at 3.0 and no longer pushing further. orthos 12hour stable suah. temp ok suah. just wait until i have WC or a much much better air cooling then ill consider pushing more to maybe 3.2 or 3.6 ish.

Too low. E6600 should go 3.5GHz wthout much effort. Of course your RAM need to oc well together.

not ALL E6600 plz...dun wan people starts rushing buying the E6600...mmm, maybe that's the main reason - marketing gimmick.

Guys, a question here. I should be getting my E6600 tomorrow hopefully. And so i will be installing windows on my new PC. So now it's a question whether should i install XP SP2 or Vista ? Will it effect the OC performance ? What about temp/voltage/etc monitoring softwares compatibilty ?

Hello there welcome to there Core 2 family I think personally it is down to your own preference on Vista or XP, but for me XP is still fine and the software for monitoring your temp, voltages should come with your motherboard's CD. Remember to post your result yea

C2D's getting cheaper. Hope on 22nd July really get another price cut. Between hahn, what mobo will u use? Dont think of going 3GHz on Asrock though

quazacolt,

60-70ish on core temp? is it at full load? if yes, then very good leh...

my idle is around 59-61'C...and if push full load on all 4 cores using prime95, it can go up till about 77'C...the temp reading is based on TAT...

as for the temp, don't worry la...even at 70'C, i dont' think the speed will degrade that much... for processors, voltage is more sensitive compare to temperature...so try keeping the voltage as low as possible...

with ur current setup, how long you intend to prolong the lifespan of your CPU? haha... by the time your PC is 4years old...maybe outdated and you already planning to upgrade PC liao.... kekeke...

yupp, e66 shall easily reach 3.5ghz~3.6ghz stable running short-term benchmark
but for stability testm, shall be quite problem0


yeahh, the sifuz already speakin'..
