Stability is still nowhere to be found but I HAVE upped the clock speed at which it can't be found. I'm now sitting at 3.68 Ghz on my Q9450. Specs Below.
Question is: core 4 keeps failing a few seconds into prime. I have about 6 trials where i change various values (Core GTLs, vPLL, vFSB...
I've finally (and strangely) been able to get my Q9450 3.4ghz prime stable. Not sure what I did. Thought it was the PLL but i backed it down to normal and it's still fine.
I'd really like to get 3.6ghz prime stable: what are my limits for PLL? I had it on 1.7 earlier (didn't seem to help much...
I'm running bhishma-stable right now (anything >= 10 second prime stable) with a Q9450 @ 3.6Ghz - Vcore ~ 1.368, which is apparently stable enough for me to run crysis, listen to music and run everything on linux.
I'll be testing my memory soon (should have suspected it a week ago) but...
I can boot my Q9450 (on an Asus P5Q-Deluxe) into windows all the way up to 3.7 GHz but realized when I did that cores 1 and 4 failed Prime within 5 seconds. I'm working my way back up but wondering if i'm not tweaking enough things.
So far I've only been messing with FSB and vcore. Oddly, I...
