hmm my air flow is intake at front, exhaust at back/top... not sure if changing the direction would help... nor would experimenting it be easy, im using the antec180p and moving stuffs inside it is a lil hard >_<

ooo the 180p...the quiet but quite hassle to do that...did u run orthos with ur side panel closed or opened...if closed, why dun u try just leave it open and see how...but as mentioned before, i think it's got to do with the cpu-hsf contact

wao nice.. u upgraded proc alrdy?

I am patiently waiting until next price cut and grab C2Q.

Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8GHZ @ 3.55Ghz
Gigabyte P35-DQ6
Corsair Dominator 8500C5D

Yes... If the batch code is the same, its should perform the same. Always remember cooling is the most important part of OC. If you cant keep the temp low, even with a gem proc u will never get good result.

Bro.. Do consider changing your heatsink. I dont think TTBT VX can handle your Q6600 heat anymore.

Do bear in mind before buying those normal Quad.

1. It is not Extreme Edition. So basically cant clock that well and have lower thermal resistance.
2. The performance gain by switching from Quad to Dual is minimal as there is almost no application fully optimized for quad core but the amount produce by an Quad is insane.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway, some of my result after switching to WC.

My old E6600. Running at 'Dirty Windows'. When using Air Cooling, I only managed to push till 3994mhz.


My current x6800.


I believe there is still some room of improvement as I havent really oc and tweak on it. Just a simple test run the proc.

water cooling. sweeeeeeeet

Will Noctua NH-U12F do?
Actually already ordered the Tuniq 120.
The problem is, all those performance Aircooling HSF is damn tall...Tuniq 155mm, same goes for the NH-U12F...my praetorian 732 has very slim chance of fitting them without having problem of closing the side panel. I'm taking the chance here of buying the Tuniq...
Any recommendation - on aircooling...WC? I'm the President of Orang Malas Club

I dunno which one giving me trouble 2.9G on stock (1.285v) is ok but higher than that even 3G seems to be 'impossible' no matter with what voltage...sux to the bone man...

well if my geminII can handle my qx6700, it shouldnt be a problem for ur coming tuniq to handle ur quad

hehehe...sure thing, the tuniq will.
but i was actually referring to the size, not the performance...
tuniq is 15.6cm standing...geminiII is far less than that...geminiII is more on the horizontal, tuniq vertical...so the geminiII will have no problem one...
i think i probably just head down to robyncom and grab me a geminiII...

w0ot.. all movin' into quad-ro already ahh

nice.. wanna see more OC result from the quaddy

main-main je bang...
no result from me yet...n i think it's gonna be quite a while b4 i can show something

here's mine...its been some time since i last log in...but anyway..

i didnt see anything bro....
seems like the all extreme proc can clock well,well bro remy,when did u get the Q6600?
how it performs?

here's my result...



will a 1M PI soon

well done!!!!
ur proc is great man!!!!
4.2GHz

what is ur cooling and what is the temp?

can u pls list down ur rig spec and the vcore?

thanks and nice job u done there!!!

Added on June 24, 2007, 2:10 pmand what's the batch of ur proc?

QX6850 first test by coolaler.

3.0GHz,1333FSB,Quad Core Extreme hitting 4.8GHZ!!!!!

http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=e...%3DG%26pwst%3D1

it's already at my sig

can't remember wat batch is my proc...threw the box away..ooops

using cascade cooling....build up 3 days ago...still need some tuning and tweaking though.... temps is around -70C...underload -60C ish.

vcore at 1.65v...using three PSU to power up my whole system...main PSU is cooler master 600w iGreen rohs triple 12v rail just for my mobo...additional PSU to power my fans and drives...and the third one to power up my GFX card.

I am actually being held back by my RAMS....my hyperX ddr2 800 isn't that great...i have to get my hands on Crucial Ballistix 8500...then 600FSB shouldn't be an issue.

anybody care to loan me a pair?....haha.

That's really extreme oc there, fits your name well.

you from Johor....i also johor...but i am in Skudai
