hi guys... currently im using gigabyte EP45-UD3L... Planning to change to Asus P5Q Pro...
my pc spec:

ok bro........... waiting for ur OC result........

mobo dead already. waiting for RMA.

Ops..your mobo died pretty quickly....does it have GTL control settings in the bios?


iBenQ, are u running on 4Ghz regularly? 1.6V? i reckon that would shorten the lifespan of the proc pretty quickly...

the links for reference.
i read last night forum on Q6600 (on other website), they said kinda hard to kill the proc. for 4GHz, i think might kill the proc. sory for noob question, i m new on Q core.

anyway, 4GHz on WC or AC, kinda interested to know ur setting

The thing the 2 factors that kills procs the quickest are high voltages to the CPU Core and constantly high core temps. Of course having high Core V's also contribute to higher temps. I'm running my quaddie at 3.6Ghz on a daily basis with 1.36-1.37V and the temps are around 52C with all 4 cores running at 100%. Using water cooling by the way.

I've tried 4Ghz but had to use around 1.5-1.6 V's but didnt run at that speed for long.

My q6600 3.6ghz @ 1.45v + 4850 in CF mode load around 75c

I need a separate loop for the 4850 CF soon

bro, all in a single bix II ?

bro, u still remember forumer named spirit of demon ? he selling BIX III now, dunno still available onot though...

hi guys im newbie for oc,is it ok to oc with these setting?
frequency:333x9
vcore:1.41v

The setting is ok but why wont set to 400x9 it shouldn't be a problem, secondly you vcore voltage is too high, i have try it before for 400x9=3.6g vcore setting at 1.325v. Try set it that way n see.

yo sifu,long time no c ..ok ill try now

i saw ur siggy cpuz 4.05 ghz

now so far i can go is 3.2ghz ( yesterday night just get my proc xD)

today will try kao kao with it xD~

after changing ram i think can reach run more than 3.2ghz

wow so many got Q6600 nowadays..
so the default vcore is 1.3v.. got any lower?

I set the vcore as 1.2650 and able to achieve 400*8 FSB as 3.2Ghz. Happy with the result.

Unfortunately, I required 1.5125v to achieve 400*9 3.6Ghz to get LinX stable for 25 times.

nice.. very hot or not?

this is the cheapest quad core in the market..

i tried mine at ur voltage with the same settings as soon as i start p95 straightaway my pc show me the blue blue screen of happiness

same mobo? could be ram..
