That be your choice sir.
Someone asked to see stable it's stable.

It's early days yet i may bring the vcore down a bit and retest but i'm all Orthos'd out at the moment.

Oh and i'm pretty sure coretemp is over reading the temps.

Same as.. i'm sure it's reading temps at least 10c over.

Tom edit the link for 3dmark2k1 in your sig, It links you to your 2k6 score

 

[cliffy]

Does no one know what a batch number is or did my post get buried under all the bickering??

 

[Vertigo]

Looking pretty good so far and voltage not too crazy

 

[JediFragger]

No more pokes at easyrider now, it's verging on becoming nasty

Vertigo,looks like youve got a decent E8400.

What stepping is it?

 

[Vertigo]

If you mean the FPO#, it's Q745A553, packing date is 4th Jan.

 

[BKUK]

Sorted.

Nice voltage on that Vertigo. Mine seems to love the juice just like my E6600 29B did only the 45nm temperature barely increases as I up the volts unlike the 65nm

Hehe mine is Q745A554

I am finding that up to 4.2 i can keep the vcore low.
Over 4.25 it needs more than 1.45 to keep prime stable.

Seems 4.2ghz is the area before big vcore increases see nominal gains.

 

[khemist]

keeping my e8500 at 4.2 1.45 until i can be sure of the temps.
