Failed on 1 core after 13 hrs of Prime small. Still a little bit of tweaking needed me thinks. I dont consider an OC stable unless I can get it to 24hrs+

Very good overclock on air that is, those boards are meant to be great for Quads I was thinking of getting one myself, but the thought of draining my loop and sourcing mosfet blocks has put me off.
Seeing as I am at 467x9 stable anyway no point.
Great these Q9650s are for clocking.

Ive seen on another forum people posting OC's booting into windows at 4.8 with this board and a Q9650. Crazy Voltages of 1.500v needed. Still pretty amazing though!

How stable do you want 8hrs is more than enough, your rig is stable.
All I use is IBT for a few runs if it can pass that its fine.

Everyones idea of 'stable' is different. For example If you're folding @ home 24/7 then 8 Hrs would not be considered stable!

If you're happy with a few runs of IBT thats great! Its just nice to know that IF I needed to run my rig 24/7 under load it would do it happily without errors.

Agreed, does depend on what you use it for, I only use mine for an or two tops at a time.
