6GHz Club [Core 2 Duo/Quad/Extreme]

[Deanzo]

It's about time I started this thread.
With the new E8600 only days away for most, 6GHz is where it's at! (maybe even 7GHz with the right board, chip and cooling )

No need to run any benchmarks, A 6000MHz (or higher) CPU-Z validation makes you part of the club


QX9650 - LN2
XFX 790i Ultra - P05 Bios
vCore - 1.96
vMCH - 1.60

6045Mhz validation http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=369183




6GHz Club Members:

1st: Deanzo - QX9650 - 6045Mhz @ 1.96v - LN2 - XFX 790i Ultra
2nd: rdrash - E8500 - 6113MHz @1.775v - LN2 - Asus Rampage Extreme
3rd: Ross - E8600 - 6403Mhz @ lots - LN2 - Gigabyte EP45T Extreme
4th: El<(')>Maxi - E8600 - 6200Mhz @ lots - LN2 - Asus Rampage Extreme

Come on Ross, how many days are you going to make us wait ?

 

[Evilsizer]

lol

just watch ross hits 6.5 or 7ghz

 

[reznik]

LOL...hmmm i really really really am thinking of switching from my Q6600 to a E8600 is it worth it...it will also be an exscuse for me to buy a new hefty cooler..my ac97 os ****ing me off.

also this voltage 1.6v for this OC isnt that crazy high?

 

[metloaf]

Yes that is crazy high however it's most likely cooled with LN2 or phase so it's ok.

 

[reznik]

u misunderstand...teh 5Ghz barrier for E8600 is air cooled...6gig is LN2/water cooled

 

[Shiggity]

Rename this the LN2 club?

 

[vixro]

I would have thought 5ghz on air would have been good enough to be in a club.

 

[JonSimonzi]

I'd consider myself lucky as hell if I got 4.2ghz out of the E8500 I just ordered.

 

[Dj Spiel]

thats insane

What did you have before and how do you like it.

Rename this the LN2 club?

With the right chip and board, a SS or DI will do it.

Ross has already posted a 5.9+ in the CPU-z thread and he's not on LN2.
If he can get his board to play ball, he should hit 6 soon.

I would have thought 5ghz on air would have been good enough to be in a club.

We have had a 5Ghz C2D Club thread for all most 2 years.

And hitting 5Ghz with these new chips (E8600) on air or water isn't going to be that hard.

And no, before someone just has to post it. That would not be prime stable

What did you have before and how do you like it

Let's keep the OT post's out of this thread..Thanks

LOL, I'll try Dean I messed with both boards all day trying to get 6x600FSB stable on air (so maybe screenable at 10x600). I may just need to try another board.

Mine screened 5GHz @ 1.55Vc on water. I've seen 5GHz screened at 1.45Vc on air with others though. Either way, there will be plenty of 5GHz and 6GHz clocks to go around for everyone

[satandole666]

Maybe I should grab a cheap set of ram, a E8600, and rig up some form of a water chiller. I'll rez my rig for this.

Spot reserved...hopefully.

 

[rdrash]

bump...because I made it and I updated my reserved spot

 

[Automiketic]

you guys are nutz! 6ghz out of quad? i was happy to get 4. great job guys i wanna see somemore.

 

[sno.lcn]

I love it Matt, good job

 

[Anubis_386]

Top notch work guys! .. I really need to get a chip that plays nice with LN2 .. This Quad of mine and my last E8400 didn't like the cold much .. I could only get 5.4GHz out of my E8400

 

[Ross]

Nice job Matt, especially on an 8500. I guess that RE is all that I hope to be joining the thread soon
