very nice. What kind of load temps are you getting with those insane volts?
Cpu cooler with TT Big Typhonn, Maximus Formula and Team Xtreme 6400.
Bios is idle @ 28C, not sure of load temp.

excellent quick test....i knew i should buy xeon instead of e8400 :P
nice piece, are this cheaper than E8400 on price
"C2D" Xeons kick ass :D
How much extra that costs compared to E8400?
Yeah, I'm curious to know which one is cheaper. I thought Xeon has a different architecture, etc?
same price here....
Hi Dumo nice try ! :clap:
Could you please post some results in 3d benches just to know how xeon can manage with games
I bet there is not difference between E8xxx and them but could you confirm that please

all the same.
the bit with the "Xeon" line on 775, is they are suppose to be higher quality CPU's.
sometimes its true, sometimes not.
Thanks Kunaak for answer :)Quote:

very interresting indeed :p:
couldn't wait no more as in Europe wolfdales prices still run hot !

Yeah mykou, since the introduction of the 45nm's the price has gone up by 35% because they are so hard to find.
right!Quote:

Dare he try?:)
yeah that's what i thought considering the placement of boxes in first postQuote:

If he was consistent, then note that the E3110 box was pictured first on the left, followed by the E8500 on the right. The E3110 box label was pictured first, followed by the E8500, therefore, it would appear that the cpu underside pictured first and on the left would be the E3110...followed by the E8500 on the right.Quote:

What's wrong with those 2 cpus?:(
I will take a pic before I freez it

i haven't looked at my chipsQuote:
