Q6600 TDP 168watts max ?

[tweakboy]

Hey yall, since suddenly power management is soo important and CPUs have to be power efficient,,, What happens to my CPU with my OC cuz I think 130watt is stock 2.4Ghz ,,,,,, and 168watts is max according to Aida64

Also on every app I have to set offset, coretemp and speedfan , -15 offset, I believe shows me proper temps then,, or am I wrong ? thanks all

Its 105W TDP at stock.

What happens when you OC? Power consumption goes up....

on my old Athlon 64 X2 with 65w TDP it says "65-75w" on Aida,
as for my i3 it says nothing but it have real time reading, I've seen as high as 80w while running linx (that's a 65w TDP CPU).

The B3 stepping is 105W, the G0 stepping which Tweakboy has has a 95W TDP. gl

I still have data from my Q6600 system. At 3GHz, it pulled 110 watts from the wall at idle, and 170 watts at full prime95 load. This is real current draw, but of course not taking into account psu efficiency. But clearly my Q6600 never dissipated more than 110 watts. Between my video card, 2 HDDs, and psu losses, my cpu probably only burned 90 watts max.

It can be double its normal TDP depending how you overclock it and what voltage that you feed it. Also the quality of the LLC circuit in your board will also play a factor.
