QUOTE(zer0hour @ Jan 4 2009, 03:55 PM) Q8200 is faster than Q6600 clock for clock, runs cooler and consumes less power. If your target is only 3.2Ghz, I'd go with Q8200. Math shows that you only need FSB of 457, which isn't all that difficult. But for sure it will have trouble hitting 4.2ghz air/liquid 3dm06 benchable and 3.8-4ghz 24/7 To get your RAM to DDR2-914, which is what you need for FSB457, give it more voltage (around 2.1 to 2.2 should be ok) and loosen the timings a bit. Run memtest to verify.   |

QUOTE(zer0hour @ Jan 4 2009, 06:58 PM) Haha that's a motherboard issue, not core issue =p 4.2Ghz is 600x7, even 3.8 is 543x7..what's the limit for UD3P? Quad Core 24/7 stability usually drop off at 480FSB,with 510FSB or so max on some good quad core clocker so that is 3.57ghz is more or less 24/7 limite So far,haven't see 600FSB yet Max i saw and that is good,580FSB validated  So,max validated with ideal condition and all,come to around slightly over 4ghz or so but not stable for multi core benching for sure  |

QUOTE(Denwcp @ Jan 12 2009, 03:18 AM) how about QX6800 ? whats the OC FSB value if i want to take it to 3.2-3.5 Ghz? mind to explain to me as well coz im a new in OC too , Thank you very much >.< Dude,just pop calculator up and calculate,easy im using the Biostar TP43 HP Mobo and a pair of value RAM of DDR2 800 Mhz. actually i do not intend to adjust the CPU voltage as i heard that it will somehow shortened the life span of the processor. Any guides ? |
