Have any of you gotten the 446x9 settings W/1070 DDR2 on a Q6600 to boot an OS? If so how many volts is the CPU/MOBO going to need to boot the OS and run a benchmark or 2?

I tried a cpu core of 1.5475volts in the bois and vista64 would not load.

from what ive seen, some are pushing 1.6v to get a stable 4.0 GHz OC on the q6600. whats the VID of your processor?

VID = 1.2875v

I have 400x9 stable running Prime95 30 hours, So I figure I should be able to load vista64 for a cpuz & everest test run:drool:. I can load vista64 at 426x9, but I want 4GHz.:santa:

I can boot into Vista, and run all benchmarks at 445x9 (4005MHz)...RAM was at 1060MHz...my CPU needed 1.6V...and this was on AIR COOLING!

Check out my thread here!
 
The all-mighty 4GHz Q6600 holy grail, grats to everyone who gets it and gl to anyone going for it =D

What kind of temps do you guys get if you do small FTT torture with 1.6V on your Q6600s?

To get 4ghz daily on a Q6600 you will either need a nice chilled water loop or custom phase. (EDIT: or a cherry chip, but that's even a stretch)

I'd plan on being happy with something in the 3.6-3.8ghz range otherwise.
