dont like that voltage WhiteFireDragon whast your load temps?
there's a big difference between short session benches and 24/7. i have a different chip that i run 24/7, and this e8600 is only for benching, but i did run it at 4.0ghz at 1.25v for 2 hours with orthos. load calibration was enabled, so there's hardly any vdrop.
this is one of the coolest (temp) chips i've played with, loading at only 45C at that voltage.
Great score man. Could you run one at 4000mhz exact is possible. I am curious my self to see the difference between the q6600, q9550, and the 920 i7. What kind of cooling do you have?.
i didn't take the screen shot, but when i bench it again, i'll do that for you. and just to let you know, 4000mhz will bench differently with spi because it will depend on the chip, cache, fsb, memory timing and frequency. for example, you'll get a faster score if you ran 4000mhz with 7 x 571mhz, 2:3 divider, and relatively low timing as opposed to 10x400mhz, 1:1, and loose timings. my guess is that generally, i7 > q9550 > q6600 with the same clocks in SPi
like i mentioned earlier, i ran my e8600 on an air cooler
