"long tall sally" Oh man! Now I'm going to have *another* song rattling through my head...

New CPU I replaced my CPU with a week 28 part, and it runs at significantly lower voltage and slightly higher speeds than my old week 24 part. This configuration is silent: all fans <=600 RPM. User name: cmthomson Stability: 13+ hours Orthos E6600 OC: 3333 MHz (9x370) Stepping: 6 B2...

Actually for a week 24 chip it's not uncommon. The fastest this chip will go at 1.45v is a bit above 345 FSB (3110 MHz). At 1.40v it's solid 300 FSB; I didn't experiment much with that voltage. The week 27 chips need less voltage.

Hi Lawrywild. Please replace my 3.110 GHz entry with this one. Thanks. User name: cmthomson Stability: 7+ hours Orthos E6600 OC: 3244 MHz Stepping: 6 B2 Week: L624 Code: A819 Vcore: 1.525 (BIOS) Cooling: air (silent; all fans <= 600 RPM) Cooler brand/model: Scythe Ninja...

UPDATE: With better ducts installed, I was able to boost the voltages and clocks and still keep the system silent, with all fans < 700 RPM. User name: cmthomson Stability: 20+ hours Orthos E6600 OC: 3289 MHz Stepping: 6 B2 Week: L624 Code: A819 Vcore: 1.55 (BIOS) Cooling: air...
