Gunner75 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) this is my max overclock of 4.3ghz on my Q9550 i was not able to pass Intel Burn test with this setting this is my current stable overclock of 4.2ghz where i could pass a 2 trip Intel burn test but my temps were really high, so i decided to just say screw it and downclock to 4.0ghz until i can get a water set up running and this is where i will run for now till i can get my water set up together, im feeling good on this run since my temps on Burn test never exceeded 65c I would like to OC to 4.3 and have that setup everyday all day stable but on my current air set up it doesnt seem possible and have a decent temp lemme know what you think im very open to criticism. So long as your not a jerk when making recommendations i do not know why my last screen shot shows on HWMonitor that i have a ATI 4800 gpu, i have never had ATI in any system but on the other 2 shots it shows my actual gpu is the GTX260 core 216 EVGA card Edited August 8, 2009 by Gunner75 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iOverclock Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 I would stay at 4ghz. Theres no point to go higher you wont be bottlenecked for any graphics card that is out currently and for ages i would say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner75 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 if your talking about the temp on the second pic that was my high temp on 3dmark, My highest temp at the 4.3ghz was REALLY high so high i wont even tell yall what it was since its really embarrassing, just know it was over 80c The final oc im at 4.0ghz at 65c is more to my liking since its sub 70c plus i didnt even have my AC running at the time and my ambient room temp was around 75F Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
