Anyone bought a G0 Q6600 from OcUK recently?

Good stuff, keep it coming guys.

Can people please quote their FPO#'s if available (it's on the side of the box).

I'll start the ball rolling - My kit just arrived and is sitting next to me on the desk at work:

FPO# **05A256 (Google finds no results for this FPO#!!!)

Ta,

Oh my god how boring. Straight around to 3.0GHz on stock volts (1.25v) and it's sitting there Prime95'ing away quite happily, without once chucking up an error. How dull. :rolleyes: I'd have at least expected to need to raise the volts a bit or something. I haven't even needed to disable Speedstep. B-o-r-ing. :o

Only thing is the temps which are a bit high as I'm on the stock cooler at the mo as I haven't transplanted my Ninja over yet.

I often wonder what sorta temps people with these quads at 3ghz + are going to get in the summer when its hot??

ive got a 4400x2 with an arctic freezer64 and that gets plenty hot in the summer so that would bother me with a quad. watercooling is the only answer i guess.

Wow, that's a sweet sweet clock man. Is that under water?

Air only, tuniq tower in a Zalman GT1000 case, as you can see I've barely had to up the voltage and temps are nice and low.

As my wife is a nesh bugger our house is at a constant tropical temperature all year round thanks to the wonderfull invention they call central heating ;)
 
Jeez hard work learning all this overclocking stuff.. :(

Anyway I recently got a new system and took my Q6600 to 3ghz so far. Works frantic at the moment and stopping me having a read-up let alone a play! Nice new system and no time to fiddle...booo!

my VID is 1.1625 (Don't even know what the VID is *shame on me*)

Someone enlighten me?

Anyone fancies offering a newb some advice, im on MSN [email protected] :)
 
some particularly nice overclocks guys, im hoping mine is a low vid version, want to get 3.5-3.6ghz on air cooling with an acf7 pro with as little voltage as pssible should be a nice improvement from a dual core.
 
i've got my Q6600 G0 at 3GHz undervolted to 1.1v stable.
it has a Vid of 1.3v, so i wouldn't worry about the Vid at all.

Bought one a few weeks ago and it has a VID of 1.3125V

Still got it at 3551MHz but requires 1.48V under load which results in 62,62,62,61 temps with an ambient of 24.5C...

I love these chips :D

EDIT: Cooler is Thermalight 120A thingy
