my quads at 3.4ghz ... same proccessor and motherboard with huzai T.T" , 425fsbx8= 3.4ghz at 3.12v (shown in cpu-z and bios reading) trying to get to 3.6ghz but so far seems to crash after 2-3 minits of stress test D:, with the following voltage settings

set the ram at 1:1 ratio

CPU Vidd: 1.4v
CPU Vidd Special Limit: Enable
CPU Vidd Special Limit Add: Auto
NB Core : 1.55v
SB Core/CPU PLL: 1.51v
FSB VTT: 1.45v
RAM VDIMM: 2v

GTL Ref Voltage Control : disabled (systems seems too be unstable if i enable this)
CPU GTL 1/2 Ref Volt : 113 (unchangeable since i disable voltage control)
CPU GLT 0/3 Ref Volt : 100 (same here)
North Bridge GTL Ref Volt : 100 (same here)

i'll give it a try

tried it both with 438fsb and 450 fsb..
im think of hitting a fsb wall here or a bad chip xD

Added on December 30, 2008, 4:33 pmfinally got it too boot at windows thou i have to disable the GTL REF Voltage Control thingy
these are the current voltages im using right now

set the FSB:RAM ratio to 1:1 (RAM @ 880mhz right now 5-5-5-15 2T Timings)
FSB: 440
Multiplier: 8
CPU Clock: 440 x 8 = 3.52ghz

CPU VID : 1.3v (cpu-z and bios reading shows at 1.328 - 1.344v)
CPU VID Special Limit : Enable
CPU VID Special Add Limit : Auto
NB Core Voltage : 1.6v (D: too high??)
SB Core: 1.51v(default)
RAM VDIMM = 2.0v
FSB VTT: 1.3v


opinions?? is it safe to run 24/7 on this?? temperature reports barely any increases thou (using DFI Smartguardian to check System and chipset temperature)

havent run any stress test yet ..

hmm okay .. system crashed anyway after running test for 50 seconds lol -.-".. had to pumped the vidd to 1.325v in bios (reading in cpu-z and bios was 1.36v) and ran the test, the system was quite stable for 20mins but i decided to cancel it since temperatures were too high 66C max.. while at 3.4ghz only 60C was max >.< " o yeah the x48 is a bit harder to OC compare to the p45 boards sigh*

yea but 1.6V on NB XD? thats high lol

i wouldnt dare to to run IBT .. degrade my proc with the heat produced especially since im running on air cooling D: .. btw ill just stick with 3.4ghz... until i upgrade this year after spm with core i7 ( hope they come out with good boards)

i just got myself an ASUS Triton 81 CPU Cooler (Supports LGA 1366 and 775) .. i wonder how my temps will go down when i OC the dfi board along with my processor .. just need a good pcie fan that can blow under my NB.. btw also bought 2 Silverstone 120 mm fans that are blowing cool air inside my TJ09 case.. temps are dropping up to 10 degrees D:

i finally got my Q9400 stable @ 3.8ghz.. 4.67v in bios lol crazy >.< (4.44v in cpu-z) on air xD max load temps were 72C (intel burn test) and 66C (prime)

now to go to 4 ghz.. probably will burn my CPU lol

lol 4.67V in bios >.<4.44v in CPU-z (with vdroop i guess)

wow nice chip u got there >.<" 1.18v on 3.2ghz.. i think u can push it 4ghz++ without hitting the 1.365v (thats what intel said) wall yet

hmm how do u check the batch anyway?

eh for the yorkfield series... anyone can tell me roughly the price of Q9650?? .. lazy upgrade i7 coz must change ram and mobo.. besides westmere coming out Q4 later anyway..

btw, lol in ur siggy GTX 295 dont run in crossfire , their SLI.. CFX = ati, nvidia = SLI, both use different methods to scale with 2 or more video cards

probably its at its limits.. Q9400/Q9450 dont oc pretty well and have an fsb wall around 450..
Vcore is pretty high.. SB is way too high.. u are gonna kill ur mobo with it.. i'd set the SB to default..
best gamble is for u to change to a better mobo =/.. P45 maybe
