E6600@3.6Ghz, Core 54 Idle, 60 Load. 1.625 Vcore, am I safe? Or am I r

[crewxp]

52-54 C Idle Usage
55-57 C Normal Usage
Max I've seen so far is 59-61 At around 85% CPU Usage. I dont know how to max my CPU usage out to test the temps.

Are those safe? I'm liquid cooled btw.

I did a manual setting, and set it to 400 fsb, 800 memory.

it predicted 3.6Ghz for me, and I could only post when I increased the vcore to 1.5, but at the Windows load, it restarted.

When the vcore hit 1.6, it was able to load windows, but then gave me a BSOD a minute into windows.

Once I hit 1.625 Vcore, I'm able to get in windows (6 hours running to far), and no BSOD.

EDIT: After 6 hours, system finally BSOD'd. Increased vcore to 6.635, it added about a degree or two to my system temps though. I'm now 56-59 Normal Load. 54-57 Idle.

Are my settings safe? People have said that Over 1.6 Vcore is too high, but If I go less than 1.6 Volts, The windows load screen doesn't load. And If I go less than 1.635, then I get a blue screen of death. 0x00000124 STOP Error I believe.

Motherboard: Asus P5W DH DELUXE
CPU: Intel E6600 2.4Ghz
Memory: 8GB G.Skill F2-8000CL5-2GBPQ Memory
HDD: 5 SATA Hard drives (2 raid'd).
OS: Vista 64-bit

i wouldnt even think of going to 1.6 - intel spec finders shows a max VID of 1.5

When do plan to upgrade next? The processor should be good for a year or two at that voltage, anymore than that is gravy.

What are you showing for load voltage? That's a lot of juice for that over clock.

Run Prime,Orthos,OCCT or Intel Burn and so what your 100% load temps look like.

Think your going to be a little over specs.

I max'd my ICH,MCH,and VTT. My MCH is locked at 1.55 since I have an older board. I decreased vcore to 1.6 and I got BSOD a minute into windows load. I increased to 1.615 (SpeedFan says 1.60V/1.59V vcore right now). I wish is could run less than 1.6, but BSOD always gets me.

But this time I also increased my memory voltage from 2.2 to 2.3, and now I was able to load


My temps dropped down A LOT also, I'm watching a video, on the internet, and using 20% CPU Usage, and my temps are 46-48 Degrees. Max I've seen so far is 52.

I will download and run those programs and post back my results.

I'm planning to upgrade this upcoming Christmas or this summer.

good lord thoes are high voltages whats your VID?

im burn test stable 3.6ghz
voltage in bios 1.48125
p45 mobo

mch stock 1.1
cpu term 1.20
cpu pll 1.55

hope that helps
idle 32 - 35c
load prime 95 small fft's 65
intel burn test tack on bout 78c never went past 80 😗

IBT IS OVER KILL THO but a good way to test ur voltages are stable atleast.
