Goz Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I've got my Q6600 (Rev B3 Step 7) running at 360 x 9 as well on a Abit IP35 Pro mobo with an ASUS Arctic Square cooler (air) at its rock solid and CPU temp is at 31c idle and 52c under full stress. I have been able to clock it up higher but opted for 3.24Ghz as a sweet spot temperature wise.

Goz Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Goz, did you bump up any of your voltages anywhere? Yeah I had to bump the vcore to 1.325 Here's a screenshot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/60829-just-got-my-q6600-in-the-mail/page/2/#findComment-458234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
reghost Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 So Vcore only? and you are on air cooling? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/60829-just-got-my-q6600-in-the-mail/page/2/#findComment-458633 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goz Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 So Vcore only? and you are on air cooling? Yep only vcore change and air cool only using an Asus Arctic Square in a Antec Nine Hundred case (1 200mm fan (top) 2 120mm fans (front), and a 120mm fam (rear) runs really nice and relatively cool.

Azurael Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 You don't actually need fast RAM... Running at any ratio other than 1:1 usually yields worse performance, or in the case of the really expensive low latency stuff, performance that only looks better by a hair in totally artificial benchmarks. You've all been brainwashed by the memory companies! Decent quality low latency PC6400 is all you need today. And don't get me started on DDR3 - all faster RAM will become useful with the releases of the next Intel platform, when Intel chips gain an integrated memory controller, and memory bandwidth isn't limited by FSB.
