I've finally managed to hit 4.07Ghz prime stable on my Q9550, but my Vcore is around 1.37, is that considered high?

ok la for quad..

Hi Guys...

newbie here..just bought Q9550...huhuhhu..then terus oc..currently stable prime95 for 4 hours...

is it ok my setting for Vcore,Vtt etc?

Prime95


BIOS Setup

is it this consider my system stable?

depends on individual.

some might prefer 8 hours prime while others let it run for 1 hour and satisfied with it.

btw on LinX,try to use all of the ram available and then run the test.772mb just doesnt cut it.

run ur windows in diagnostic mode and u can use up to 97% of ur available ram to stress the cpu.

this is i can do for my Q9550...set my ram to 2973MB...



is it ok?

Seem like ok to me
Most important is don't crash on real world

huhu..
me dont event have chance to hit more than 3.76Ghz..
maybe my cheapo kingbox ddr2 800 doesnt cut it?

maybe you need give some extra juice to your ram...2.1v

dun dare to push it..
is it okay..

do i need to loose its timing..
now all default @ 5,5,5,15 2T

did you have active cooling for your ram?for better you need active cooling if you want to pump more vdimm...

bro, try multiplier x8 instead 8.5 with 1.37v. (look how cool the toy running with 24 hours prime95)

last time mine achieved 4.21GHz with 1.37v (test prime95 36 hours fail)

eh... how come i never bumb into this tread until now... wth man

btw what u use to cool ur 9550 ? mine goes to 75'c on stock frequency... cant even push at all

currently im using Hyper212+ to chill my 9550 in a non air conditioned room with ambient temp ranging from 31-36'c

anyone has 9550 air cooled and not in air conditioned room ?

i head the temp threshold for proc is 90'c is it true ar ?
i dont dare to experiment with it since my 9550 is lapped and no warranty @_@

this is normal if you using LinX to stress proc...if you using Prime95 to stress...the temperature load is not high like LinX one...

oh well... i use the latest version of OCCT to stress it... temp aint that good...
75'c on load, 48'c idle, 35'c ambient and thats only with stock frequency cooled by Hyper 212+

crap man... what cooler did you use ? are your pc in an air conditioned environment ? whats your ambient temp ?

btw can anyone confirm with me the max temp threshold of a processor

sorry for shooting my question out so rapidly
i cant hold back my proc without OC any longer

emm.. just put direct blown 80mm fan..
is it enuff?

i used thermolab baram like this one



and no air cond environment

erm.. confius.. me oso using 212+
and even @3.5Ghz @1.34v OCCT just giving me less than 71C load

wah, dual fan... nowonder... ballstix tracer under that humble corsair cooler... i like it XD
nice setup, however im going for silent setup... will be using the 212+ stock fan monitored by mobo and all case fan will be running at low speed...

im using a cap ayam case with side panel opened and a 212+ facing upwards... max temp is 75'c at stock frequency...
maybe i should change to a thermalright venomous-x instead... hmm

just cant take the noise of my pc humming beside me... makes me cant sleep
your room is air conditioned right? that result is unachievable on a 212+ without air cond

hyper 212+ is enough bro igf you using performance fan..but your objective is silent setup meanwhile performance fan is too loud..
