Just wondering where the best clocks are coming from, are the costa rica chips the best ones? or is there no real diff between em?

Im going to be on the look out for a 2.26 with good packdate and country soon so Ill need to know what to look for :D

I believe that the P4's from Malaysia are currently the best overclockers. I have a 1.6A from Malaysia sitting in my PC that will do 2.94GHz w/stock cooling and 1.65V, so the 2.26B's should have even greater potential than this. Also, it seems that newer packdates are usually better overclockers, at least in the case of 1.6A's.

Thanks, I am lucky to get such a nice chip. Unfortunately, it is not stable at this speed with my current cooling. 95F temps and 80 dewpoints don't help much either:) . Anyway, to get back on track, the 7/02 Malaysian 2.26's seem to be fine overclockers: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1887
