Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Overclocking Experiences !

3,6 to 4 gig is 24/7 stable on my system

infrared · Sep 21, 2006

hmmm, watercooled, with a DS3... nice combo

It will be interesting to see how my E6400 compares to you guy's overclocks. Aparently they're better overclockers, but you need a good board that can take over 500mhz fsb to get the most out of them. Damn that lower multiplier

my conroe shows under 1,518 (or something^^)
and 3,6 gig a 62 degree under 15 hours prime

Screenshots too please. =)

Not that I don't believe you, but that's pretty incredible to post without screenies.

gR3iF · Sep 21, 2006

k give me 15 hours ;P no i will do tommorow for you^^

gR3iF · Sep 21, 2006

here this will run today till i go to bed let me see how long this wil be (assuming 5hours)

Vinas · Sep 22, 2006

Looks nice, I hope you are able to achieve these speeds. It will be something for the rest of us (me) to aim for... So far the highest I can get stable is 3.3GHz @ 412 x 8...

Janchu88 · Sep 25, 2006

don´t you guys think Increasing Vcore about 0,3v on 65nm is kind of insane?

We dont know how the C2D behaves to SNDS but i would step gently towards that topic...

PS:C2D E6300 running 3,5ghz @1,344v load ... dualprime stable

gR3iF · Sep 25, 2006

under watercooling its for me np
so far i wasnt able to let my pc ran 12 hours prime on 3,6 iam sorry

mobo57 · Sep 27, 2006

No problem for me either. Running BOINC at 3.6 24/7 watercooled. Temps never above 36C Probe and 52C TAT.

Vinas · Oct 2, 2006

Well my final results are 3.36GHz (420x8) @ 1.33v and 5c idle 18c dual prime. Using active water chiller.

I suppose the other guy couldn't back up the e6600 3.6GHz stable claim. :rolleyes:

infrared · Oct 2, 2006

you should be able to push the vcore way higher, with those awsome temperatures you could likely hit 4ghz. 1.5v should be fine

Beomagi · Oct 2, 2006

W2hCYK - sounds like the first rule is biting you. May be a weak oc'ing chip (or possibly board?). Temps aside, if you cant get past 3.2 on 1.6V, I dont think you're going to get much higher. how much Vnb?

largon · Oct 2, 2006

3200MHz dual Prime stable for < 6h

C2D E6600 @ 1.325V set in bios (1.305V w/ DMM)
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS4
2x1GB TeamGroup DDR667 @ DDR712 3-3-3-9 w/ 2.2V
Watercooled CPU, GPU & MCH

gR3iF · Oct 3, 2006

iam sry but i have atm no time at all
iam @full time job calles school and girlfriend
so my pc is atm running @3200mgh and its fine for me i will do 3,6 stable just wait a bit more^^
and i will do it without waterchiller

ocnoobert · Oct 4, 2006

i got my connie running 6600 3.4 ghz on air now, lookin pretty good. temps ranging from 50-52 load and my volts are only set at 1.40 in my mobo.........however cpuz is reading 1.36.......anyone know what the discrepancy might be

oh and so far ive only been able to prime it for 1.5 hours......been stable thru that tho....will run prime overnight tonight

gR3iF · Oct 4, 2006

its called vdroop so your board has a voltage drop about 0.04

largon · Oct 5, 2006

gR3iF
No, that's called inaccurate software readings.

W2hCYK · Oct 5, 2006

I get the same results all the way up to vMHC 1.8v.

The board is a more expensive and stable version of the P5W DH Deluxe, so i dont think thats the problem. I think its just a sucky chip..

I have it stable @ 3.3GHz, 1.485v, 12hr P95. Im gonna leave it at that for now. I may sell the E6600 and buy an E6400~ or something.

It was an OEM chip, so i guess I cant complain..

**What is the first rule?

Beomagi · Oct 5, 2006

your milage may vary

gR3iF · Oct 5, 2006

largon its called vdrop
read xtremesystems about vdrop mods
every boars has a little drop of voltage under load which wont appear under idle
its just the board

largon · Oct 5, 2006

gR3iF,
Difference between bios setting and CPU-Z reading is not droop. It's just inaccurate readings...

...however, difference between bios setting and a DMM/oscilloscope reading is.

W2hCYK · Oct 5, 2006

i 2nd gr3if's statement about voltage drooping. If you measure with a multimeter, you will see, the voltage is much different than that set in the bios. Set your voltage to X volts, go check the reading in the software, then find the voltage read point on your motherboard, and read it with a multimeter. If you do that and then the voltage is spot on then i will agree that it is an incorrect reading.

gR3iF · Oct 6, 2006

and for what is then a vdrop mod?
afterwards you wont get this drops in cpu-z?
just a trick for everyone so they dont have the drop in a programm which doesnt matter?
lol?

largon · Oct 6, 2006

...however, difference between bios setting and a DMM/oscilloscope reading is.

Duh. What was I thinking. Bios of course has nothing to do with droop, nor do software readings.

This is what I meant:

"...however, the difference between measured idle and load voltages is droop."

My point was that one can't detect vdroop with software because software readings are hardly ever reliable as software readings often fluctuate even when DMM shows a perfectly stable voltage.
