Went ahead and built my first system intel q9650 gigabyte EP43-UD3L mb and 4 gigs corsair 800mhz ram thermaltake big typhoon hs (lapped) . I was able to get to 380 fsb = 3.4g stable for 18 hrs .temps at idle are 29,28,29,31 @99%cpu 50,49,50,55. Some help now is appreciated
Is it normal for 1 core to be 4to5 degrees hotter than the other 2
I set the graphics to 100mhz ,other than that Ive made no changes to any other settings in the bios . Where do I go next ? Im trying to get to 4.0g
The vcore is 1.17 in cpuz isnt it supposed to be 1.25? should I up that next ?
Regarding ram theres a setting in the bios for MCH latch that looks like a setting for ram . Should I set this to 400mhz or leave it
Sorry for the newb questions Any help or other suggestions are greatly appreciated
Thanks
