I just started work on the Xeon X3350, plugged onto a EP35-DS3 and pumped FSB to 400, voltage to 1.225V. SpeedStep, C1E etc. all still running.

Temps are at 45/43/45/37 idle and 60/59/60/53 100% load with 2 instances of orthos set to run on 4 cores.

Is it just me, or the temps seem a bit too high? Using cooler master Hyper 212 in Antec 900 case atm.

Whats the highest the X3350 can go on air cooling?

aw crap, mine is 3.2 and already need 1.225 vcore for 24 hr orthos

wonder which mobo is best for yorkfield? may sell off my ep35-ds3 for something else next month

mobo settings are all at default, except CPU voltage control 1.225V. CoreTemp's VID seems bugged though.

OK...

Got any tips on which RAM brand to use? Planning to sell my value RAM sticks soon.

Hmm ballistix at 375/4gb seems pretty sweet, but not lehteck selling, otherwise can pick up on the spot, same college

Thanks anyway.
