Advice on hitting 3.6GHZ

I suggest you take a look at this http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=147163 helped me out a lot when i was using the ip35 pro

Thanks can I ask if you fit W/C systems within the UK? and how much, drop us a pm if you would not mind.

Not sure what you mean by fit, i can assemble a parts list for your if you'd like but im in Southern California (US)

Right, today I installed Scythe Mini Ninja, yet to fathom how the fan attaches to it's running passive, I've the PC on 1.5v ram 2.1v 400x9FSB and the ram set to DDR-800 1:1, temps are seemingly at the moment

43,43,38.39.

That fine?

Should be fine, just considering where the Tjunction Max is guesstimated to be.

Is that 1.5v your vcore? What's your Windows vcore?

^ Whats the load temperatures because i'd say if its 62c or below then i say its safe.

[DrewJW]

Not tested yet I have CoreTemp showing 44c idle at the moment on Vista..

Do you even know where that number comes from?

Thermal Specification: The thermal specification shown is the maximum case temperature at the maximum Thermal Design Power (TDP) value for that processor. It is measured at the geometric center on the topside of the processor integrated heat spreader. For processors without integrated heat spreaders such as mobile processors, the thermal specification is referred to as the junction temperature (Tj). The maximum junction temperature is defined by an activation of the processor Intel? Thermal Monitor. The Intel Thermal Monitor’s automatic mode is used to indicate that the maximum TJ has been reached.

edit: OP if those were idle temps, they're pretty much useless. Load temps are what get the hottest and therefore the most relevant to determining anything.

It's like determining structural failure using an "average load" instead of worst case scenario load.

After pushing it under load since my last post the maximum temperature i've seen is 62c.

Sweet.

What did you use to test it? Make sure you stressed all four cores simultaneously to get the true maximum temp.

Orthos X2, assigned to dif cores.
