1.62v? :eek::eek:

Hows that under quad load?

3.7 @ 1.5v was as high as i pushed my x3210, got too hot for my liking under quad prime, the heat that was generated raised the temperature in my room very quickly to unbearable levels. :eek:

well its acutally 1.58V.

My watercooling is awesome. No idea what load temps are but they wont be much higher than the idle temp.

3.8ghz with x8 multi

Q6600G03.8Ghzwaterx8.jpg

Need full quad load temps on all four cores.

Don't want to be a kill joy but showing booted screenies at 3.8ghz without load analysis is not giving us much to go on.

Also I want stress testing done.

Stabilty shots showing prime running etc...

Need to know wether these G0's run cooler than B3 under load.

Idle temps mean nothing

I think you will find load temps to be significantly different than idle.

Fingers crossed they are not though :)

Serposidly someone had A Go core @ 3.8 stable for 5 hours prime before he closed it. it didn't crash he closed it. Thats a nice clock :P and there have been some reported at 4ghz but not sure how stable.

Ooo i cant wait :P


Sorry if its already posted but i dont want to read through that many pages lol.
 
Prime works now. :confused:

That is with 1.7V



Q6600G03.8Ghzprime.jpg



Died once Core 2 started the 2nd test. :(

Going to keep it at 3.6ghz and try more tomorrow when another motherboard arrives. And I shuold have some OCZ FlexXLC 9600 next week to help this lot out.


edit--------------


3.6Ghz with 1.6V - load with prime

temp = 51C or less.

Ok, first screen shot. Straight in at 3.6GHz, Vista 64bit installed OCed, to see if it would.



Asus Blitz Formula, not tweaked, mostly Auto. Vcore loadline enabled and 1.48 selected as a guess, may be able to drop it a bit. Droops to 1.46v but doesn't move. 400*9 works fine, 450*8 also works fine. Thermalright Ultra could do with a little work, rough finish. Temps seem ok, northbridges is very hot. Im going to glue on 40mm fan, knocks 10C off. Apart from that seems ok.
