    Q9450 @ 3600Mhz

    Have switched my Motherboard from 7780i to X48, and would see if my CPU could / would be more. Before I could only get it up to 3400Mhz, but seems it was all too hot. Here with X48, it is obviously a different matter....

    The motherboard would not like to change the actual temperature of CPU, but just what it think it reads like.

    Nice vcore 1.25?
    Good temps. What cooler are you using?

    I want nothing more than 3.4ghz without to have 1.3+

    Nevertheless, there was a temporal difference of 10 degrees+. This chipset temps, I have suspected since my 780i motherboard was very hot on the motherboard, and around the CPU. Seems good enough as Nvidia Chipset becomes something more than a hot Intel despite active cooler on the Nvidia chipset.

    Now In volts a Asus MB never - But my vcore in the BIOS is set to 1275, so it is very fine, with both low vcore and low temp. It only run 5½ hours Orthos with no errors because I just forgot my screenshots.

    My cooler is a Xigmatek 1284 with standard 120mm fan, and PWN.

    I can not have my ram to 960Mhz v/2.2 volts. On my 780i, they could well be 1000Mhz at the same volts, but with my CPU gain with imagery that I am entering my system is more stable, yes it's a nice exchange. Zotaz 780i Supreme ---> Asus P5E DL.

    Looks pretty out. Intel chipsets have always been best. You have no more shuttle / mATX?

    I'm running 3800MHz on my Q9450 on aircooling. It sits in an Asus P5Q Deluxe with Corsair Dominator 2x2GB PC2-8500 RAM. It is also a TRUE with a noctua P12 fan.

    Nope. Got a good price for the last, and then bought an ATX MB so I can play a little more

    How are your temps? I count "well" with my motherboard will 475FSB, so 3800 is not impossible here. What is your vcore for 3800mhz?
