just traded my B3 for a G0, same vid 1.325 but i have it at 3.8Ghz at 1.6/ 1.58 after vdroop, 62c max load on highest core with prime 95 running 4 threads. gonna run some 3dmark tests in a min. will update.
quite a sweet trade i must say

will try for 4ghz if temps allow, after tests

The G0 stepping requires less voltage to achieve higher clocks

nah my coolers fine, its just the high vid thats making the temps a little higher, its still averages 10C lower at 3.6 than my B3 ever did.
my ambient is also about 76F right now

yeah the vid is the highest for Q6600's but im happy with it, once i go water it wont matter

LOL, that makes a lot more sense. I would find it extremely hard to part with my G0.

In regards to temps, each chip is different, the solder/TIM used internally has alot to do with that.

I had a 1.3125 VID that would hit 56/56/50/50 full load at 1.45v - 3.40GHz
I have a 1.21 VID that hits 65/65/62/62 full load at 1.45v - 3.60Gz, its a firecracker

Both on the same H2O setup.... Some chips just run hotter than others...

To the OP... Great job on the OC, my 1.31 wouldnt get past 3.4, went as high as 1.55v bios but couldnt even run 3dmark....

i backed it down to 3.71 at 1.52v for 24/7. temps are great with the 90C Tjmax, only hits 55c at full load. i might try a suicide 4ghz run in a little bit, if i gather up the cajones to do it
