What are you using for cooling on the Q6600 to keep it stable at that speed?

Whaw TheHorta,

very impressive.

What are you using for cooling on the Q6600 to keep it stable at that speed?

It's air-cooled using a ThermalRight Ultra 120 Extreme HS with a Scythe SFF12F 120mm (very quiet) fan. I used Arctic Silver for paste. No lapping or extra work involved. I'm running the G0 at near-stock voltage (1.325V) and did not have to change or alter anything else -- NB, FSB, etc.

BTW, I actually uploaded a much larger image including some of the Vista configuration info, but it looks like it got cropped. Email me at [bgetchel] at {gmail} dot you know what if you want more detailed screenshots/information.

I was going to buy a ThermalRight Ultra 120 Extreme when I got my CPU but they were out of stock, so I though I would wait and water cool it at a later date.

What sort of temps are you getting idle and under load? as I might pick one up when they are back in stock.

What sort of temps are you getting idle and under load? as I might pick one up when they are back in stock.

Idle temps are 32-40C and jump around a bit depending upon the core. Core #0 seems to run 2-3C hotter than the rest. However, the U120x seems to handle loads very well. Testing with CoreTemp and Prime95 using their "Torture Test" only increases temps 10-15C max. After nine hours of P95 temps ranged from 45-55C, but mostly stayed in the 46-52C range, flicking occasionally over 50C. Never over 55C even for the hottest core.

Initially I was worried that idle temps seemed higher than most reports, and that I may have mounted the HSF incorrectly, but load temps are right in line with the best of the air-cooled reports and are nice and cool, so everything looks rosy.

 

[z3r010]

Hmmm getting very tempted to pick one up now.

I highly recommend Thermalright HSFs too... I myself am using a Thermalright Ultima 90 with an Antec Tricool 92 mm fan set to medium (1500 rpm). I got it after reading good reviews about it at Anandtech. It barely gets warm to the touch even when playing games.

Ok, ik hope you can see this.

Disk performance is optained with :


Asus P5k64WS 1333 mhz board with 3GHZ e6850 duo proc
5 x SAS 300 gb 15k. Vista Ultimate is on partition C: 59 GB

Adaptec 31205 Sas Raid card, 256mb cache, 800 mhz processor
Raid5EE. Block size is 256kb. Available space = 836 GB
memory is 2 gb 1333 mhz DDR3

I must point out that my other computer has only 3 SCSI U320 x36gb
drives in Raid5 with a Perc4e card. This combo gets 5,9 on the score as well.

PS sorry but nobody helped me to put the score on the site, so what you see is what you get

Ok, I wanted to post my WEI Scores here also, but whether I try to get it trhough Computer->Properties, or Control Panel, I get this error message:

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set Association control panel".

Whats up with that?

 

[Rob Redbeard]

I guess I don't feel so bad that I've got all these 5.9's then.
CPU：5.8
RAM: 5.9
Grap: 5.9
3d : 5.5
disk: 5.7

I'm pretty sure that if I used something better than this stock cooler I could clock above 3.2ghz. Ｉcan now but not for a real system. Now, at 3.2ghz I can leave Premiere to render video for 3 hours and it stays under 57C. If I change the cooler I could probably get 5.9 on CPU too.

As for disk, I'm not using RAID, so there's lots of room for improvement there.

Umm... at TWELVE POUNDS I think that thing weighs more than a Volkswagen!

LOL!!!

You must have very strong legs and wear fire retardant pants

That sucker must get H-O-T!

Sweet unit.

 

[larryk]

Yeah, that puppy would probably be more accurately described as a semi-portable desktop...

But, boy, it performs...

 

[sosrandom]

With the spec below too (but 2 gig of ram), my harddrive is an old Maxtor sata I 160Gb (as a test install of vista) untill my new non corrupted drive arrives. (Ill post a ss)
Im not sure if it makes a difference but I have all the Vista features enabled.

 

[mathews2010]

Graphics kind of hurt my score..so don't laugh
