Alright guys,
I want to have a definitive conversation over the safe zones for Vcore max on a Q9550 and the VTT max for a Q9550.
My current position is that for 24/7 use keep the Vcore at 1.4 or less (because with LLC enabled, it can spike above 1.45, which is where intel says it starts to break down).
My position about the VTT is keep it below 1.4 for 24/7 use before degradation might occur.
What do you guys think about these values? I'm running my VTT at 1.36 right now, its the only way I can hit 4.3 on my 9550 and I was wondering if you'd consider that safe for 24/7 use while hopefully having it last a couple years still.
