Q6600 differences

Billzz said:
Well my Q6600 is a greedy little bugger. VID is 1.325v. 1.45v is needed in BIOS just to get stable at 3.2ghz :( Seems to get really hot too even under a tunic. I just run it at stock with 1.2v, keeps a lot cooler and seems to handle everything I can throw at it, I don't notice any drop in FPS even in Crysis which seems to be the most CPU as well as graphical game at the mo. Dissapointed I didn't get a better one, but not unhappy ;)

I've got a 1.325v-er too and it wont post beyond 3.0GHz with stock voltage.
Interesting to hear it hold stable on a lower voltage. Might try that.

3.5Gb with a max temp of 40c and stock volts, thats very impressive. Is that using prime small fft?

Never heard of one doing 3.5 on stock voltage before, hell I've not even heard of one doing 3.4 on stock. As above would love to see pics of a several hour small FFT run

depends what (s)he means by "stock" I would imagine I could do 3.5ghz @ 1.325v which would be "stock" voltage for some Q6600

Yeh, but would your max temp be 40c under Prime95 though, with a less than impressive air cooler!
 
I cant be arsed to sit and run prime for hours... but here is an IBT @ 512K which in my experience is primestable

Thats 1.325v BIOS vcore
