Now testing stability of (333*9) @ 1.250V, RAM: 1000MHz 4-3-3-6 2T tRC=12 @2.17V.....one hour stable in windows, RAM Memtest86 no errors 6.5 hours.

Vcore drooping to 1.16V under load, temps from 48-51C (low core/high core)

No problem. I think it may have to do with the Japanese to English translation- I myself used to translate Jap instruction manuals to English and Spanish. Some things just get skipped over because getting a good translation from Japanese can be very difficult, and most translators don't care about the details.

that's some crazy low vcore man, i'm jealous.

btw, take a look at that thread of mine over the in the folding forum. i posted some new details there and i'd love to have your feedback on my last post.

i think i'm gonna have to take some pics of my rig and post over the air cooling forum asking for people's advice, as i wanna mod in some fans but i obviously don't wanna screw up the existing airflow....

Wow man. Now I want a Q6600 after all! lol
3GHz with that low vcore? I don't see why we can't reach 3.4GHz or more on this board.

What's the "safe" rated voltage max on the Q6600?

Intel just revised max Vcore for all 65nm C2D and C2Q chips is 1.500V

I'm trying to see what the lowest Vcore I can push is, then start overclocking again. Sounds counter intuitive, but I've been rereading the thread. From what I can gather the board just does not like high voltages. Lowering the Vdimm and Vcore seems to help stability in some cases.

agreed ravin. i've seen stability increases in some cases when i've been able to lower vcore. as we've discussed, it seems that the voltage regulation on this board leaves a lot to be desired.

Who here has done the pencil mod? How much improvement did you see? I'm considering seeing if it'll help me stabilize my 3.4GHz OC, which has run into trouble....

Same here although I'm a bit paranoid to do it on a board that I just bought.

Me, it helped me to lower my vcore. Theres an image link in my sig to show you where you need to do the pencil mod as well.

As long as you have an ohm meter to check the resistance of your mod there shouldnt be any conscern for damaging the board. Personally I'd be more worried about my CPU that cost 3X as much. Meh, if I kill the P5N-E, I'll just go get a p35/X38 board.

Part of the reason why I went for this board is because of the dual IDE headers so I could keep all of my older hard drives and it would accept a CPU with a 533 FSB so if I were to blow it I'd either have to get the same mobo or a new one plus a new CPU.

...that second scenerio won't happen.
