just bought a E6850...will surely check it out once installed...just imagine that u keep on pumping vcore and generating more heat while ur software said,"It's find, u can push some more!"...

will do that tonite and see how's the temp...
not kaya la bro...that Q6600, passing it to my brother this weekend...since this E6x50 just out, wanna give it a try la

u meant u touched the heatsink it's cool-->not hot?

installed the E6850...
run the OCCT at 3.6G@1.45v/1.44vdroop...
i have 3 temp reading software running: EasyTuner5, CoreTemp and Speedfan as per pic attached. dunno whether can believe or not the reading but seems valid enuff. btw, my E6850 has the Tjunction of 85c not 100c like other guys

already did that...got the same reading for CoreTemp and Speedfan --> kinda funny temps. then i opened all three. the CPU temp is reported the same for Speedfan and Easytune...but the Core0 and Core 1 temp is really ridiculous...really really hope somebody comes up with the apps to support the E6x50...

it is due to G0 stepping or 1333Mhz proc?
anyone with Q6600 with G0 stepping, pls reportn in...

my Q6600 is showing Tjunction of 100c and the the VID is 1.275v...sweet...but it's not G0...it's B3 though

i dun think G0 is 'a reject to all OC'ers'...the problem is that current apps cannot correctly detect the coretemp...in terms of oc wise, so far it's quite good...running my E6850 at 3.6G wif 1.44vdroop...so, for daily usage, i'm satisfied wif it...

or izzit the vdroop mod since he was mentioning about vcore...
but that 3.6g with that vcore is sweet...drop it summore bro

same here...i oso testing wif 450x8...i'm targeting to have it run at 3.6 wif 1.4 or less vcore...hopefully can lar

dun think the question is relevant at the moment since non of the 3rd party apps can correctly detect the coretemp...so, i just use easytuner...use the temp shown as the reference and add another 10c...on previous proc, the diff between coretemp and cpu is about 7-8c...so add up some buffer, jadi 10c la...at least got some reference rather than just walking in the dark

that's why i said right now it is irrelevant since all the known apps reporting the same temp and we know the temp is not correcto...

naaaahhh...i just buying it coz dunno what to do with the money i have

about to install it this morning...was waiting for the xingmatek...but havent arrive yet, so got impatience looking at the quad lying there...install je la with the geminiII...we'll see how it's perform
not full of $$$ la bro...actually bad timing when i bought the e6850...was looking for the quad G0...dun have, so grab the e6850...then kvcom selling the G0, grab that one and selling the E6850...if u want, can offer me la, we'll see how...coz the e6600 edi sold, so wanna get rid of the e6850 as well...soonest as possible...

btw, enuff with that...nanti TS or the staff/admin kasi warning plak...
to the rest,sorry for the OT discussion

and just got info that my E6850 is actually a G1 stepping...nvr heard of it...cpu-z reported as G0...anyone heard of G1 stepping???

probably the AS5 (i presumed) is yet to sink in properly...give it some time. according to their guide, 200hrs. dunno la.
