Default E8600

This arrived today Batch Q822A435.


Testing Equipment as per my System Specs.
Recap:
E8600 E0
2x2GB Corsair 8500
LP LT X48 T2R
Seagate 'cuda 500GB 32Mb
Corsair TX750
Sapphire HD 4870
Xigmatek S1283 Bolt through kit w/ xtra 120mm fan

I stuck on an HR05 w/80mm fna and used the bolt through kit for the S1283 w/ xtra 120mm fan for push pull, I dropped in the E8600 and flashed BIOS to 725.

OCCT running at 4Ghz on Auto 1.15 volts all other settings to the C2D DFI add-on template. RAM 5/5/5/15@2.150 333/667.

A couple more to finish off tonight:




I have not been able to boot into windows at 5Ghz and the BIOS was reading 100c so i have stopped shooting for it for now.
Instead i have been testing stability at 4.5Ghz and will see how much more i can squeeze out later.
This board has been a pleaseure to work with always recovering well from failed boot attempts, I will see what can be done with the RAM later as well.

I am also looking forward to this mate. Wish you had a quad to bench it against, but we can't have it all I guess.

1st problem:
I can run OCCT at 4.2Ghz@1.16250V no issues but I cannot boot into windows at 4.3Ghz at the same volts so i upped one notch to 1.16875V which then tries to post but shuts off and needs reset. I am stumped as to why anything over 1.16250V stops me posting.

Here are my settings, if anyone gets a minute would they tell me where i might be out?

Maybe you can try to up this to around 1.35?

You tried booting at say, 1.25 vCore?

Nice going BTW!

NB Core Voltage:1.265V 1.3-1.4v
CPU VTT Voltage:1.100V - 1.2-1.3v

Failing that, try the 400/800 strap.

tnx.

I upped NB to 1.4v and 1.25 vCore and kept it at 420x10-333/667. Doesnt post let alone boot i am afriad.
This is quite odd i will keep experimenting but maybe there is something i have forgotten to do?
This feels like a stupid thing i have not turned on/off.

I will try more vcore and see where that gets me, i can't imagine i would need more than 1.4V on the NB yet.
