my thread is alive again yay i guess sign me up gain too screen shot soon

finally got it

 

[lovely?]

nice! how did you work around your temperatures? or were you using to much V?

i was going by the voltage in my BIOS, 1.4v under CPUZ did the trick. max temps after 30 minutes of orthos = 67C.

I've hit 4.5 something but don't have a screenshot for proof. My Everyday OC is 4 tho.

how do you unlock your multiplier?

 

[bebopin64]

i think i7s are all unlocked. they dont use fsb to OC

It's not unlocked. I just enabled Turbo or w/e intel calls it. It only works with single thread applications. The maximum is 20.

I had mine OC'd to 4GHz out of the box but never took a screen to prove. Don't really care to have it that high though. No need. I'll keep it at 3.2.

Sign me up too! Pics on the link below my sig

Mostly all e8400's aswell lol.

One of the few chips that can do it on air ^_^

mmm
*looks at acer aspire in sig*

i wonder . . . . . .

 

[yhahh]

I've got 4GHz today, but I've a little problem.
CPUZ and others monitoring software don't give me the same frequences lol

WTF ?!
In BIOS I entered FSB 470 x8.5
CPUZ is right but why others don't get good values??

 

[yhahh]

I've checked many softwares :
BIOS : 4GHz (changed to 500MHz x 8.0)
CPUZ : 4GHz
Coretemp : 4GHz
Everest Ultimate : 4GHz or 4.5GHz
3Dmark06 : 4.5GHz
Memtest86 (boot) : 4.5GHz
Everest Home : 4.5GHz
CPU Stress : 4.5GHz
OCCT : 4.5GHz
console CSS : 4.5GHz

I think it's just a problem of reading of the ratio CPU/FSB for a few software. Can it be serious? Or do anyone has already got that problem and have found a solution?
Thanks

I'm officialy in the family

ya newest member. 3.8 ghz everyday OC, this ho gets hotttt.

 

[Archangel]

hmmm,... I'll try and get my Q6600 to 4GHz I think... (would be the first one of that cpu generation to make it on this forum, wouldn't it? ^^ ) with the cooling I have now, the CPU temp shouldnt be a problem. (had it at 3.8GHz Stable, but 4.0 it was getting unstable maybe with the better coling it'll make it tough.

 

[Shane]

Arch that would be great to see a Q6600 hit 4Ghz.... ohh a Quad core at 4ghz!!!! :good:

I want to push mine further too,But my cooling is at its limits now,i dont like my load temps if i go over 3.4Ghz.
