Nothing special, 36sec.

Ill try more later :P

I got up to 4.707Ghz with 1.535v. But my ram, and or board is giving me a headache. I got 10.03x secs. But anything above 4.65ghz, i have to raise my performance level on my ram, so it gives me more Ghz but slower PI time. So basically, 4.7ghz would be the same time as 4.68ghz..

I haven't given up yet, I'd like to see someone get 4.7 at that voltage :D

what timings are you running on the RAM? tighter timings will yield better results in superpi, maybe you could tighten them up and hit 9's?

The main reason I wanted to get some 9's out of the E8400 on air with DDR2 RAM is that someone told me it couldn't be done. With water I'm sure you can get some mid 9's after testing. Keep us posted how it goes!

I have hit 9's before, but froze taking a screen shot :P

My timings are fine, i have played with them. The only thing that lets me hit 4.66+Ghz is setting the performance level for my ram to 10 or above. (it should be 7, if it were at 7 then i would hit sub-10s at ~4.66Ghz). The thing is, with lower performance level (faster) my MCH voltage needs to go up in order for it to boot. Well, the max voltage i can set for it in bios is +0.375v which isn't enough when i hit 520+ FSB

In the end, i belive i'm hitting my boards limits :P

isn't the X38 supposed to be a better board than the P45?

Yeah, it is. The X38 and X48 are the same chip. Only the X48s are higher "binned"

I need to update my bios again though, that would probably help. Last time i updated, i couldn't get above 4.5Ghz. After the update... well i got to 4.7 :P
 
get cellshock ram, people get insanely nice clocks out of it, i've only found one place that actully sells it though, 10 dollar postage on the stupid sticks of ram, though

this just goes to show that money doesn't actually buy better performance. the X series boards are nice, but i honestly can't see the point in spending more than $150 bucks on a good motherboard since Gigabyte provides so many good boards at that price point. i mean he's got a faster clock speed, just as good of ram... etc, the biggest difference is the northbridge. P45 is a monster.
