My proccy finally took the crap...

Yeah, I woke up this morning and my computer was acting all strange-like, random lockups in Windows and such. The problem gradually got better as I lowered the clock speed down or really cranked the vcore to an unsafe level. Needless to say my proc will only run about 2700mhz @ 1.58vcore right now, rofl.

I'm going to yank it out and hock it on ebay and replace it with a Xeon 3060 or 3070 and hope I get a good stepping.

Fairwell to the E6600 :wavey:.
 
Wounded.

You might have better luck with the Xeown anyway ;)

My proccy spazzed out last night... Passed OCCT stability @ 3.5ghz, then proceeded to spazz out/restart...
 
I was running it @ 1.6vcore @ 4ghz and 1.68vcore for benching @ 4.4ghz.

I went ahead and ordered the 3070 so I can get rockin' again, once it comes in I'll offload the E6600 on some poor ebayer.
 
Bleh, Bad luck frag.

Theres a thread somewhere on the big bad interweb that raises issues about the life of the conroe chips at more than 1.5v. Twas a bit controversial though.

Didn't I see a thread from you like 2 days telling us how you was going to sell your soul to pay off your debts? Naughty fraggles :nono:
