CPU ： Gulf Q4EG
CPUクーラー ： i7 965EE cooler
Room temp : 25c
M/B ： Biostar TPower X58A
Memory ： G. SKILL F3-16000CL8T
VGA1 ： ATI Radeon 5970
SSD ： Intel X25-V
POW : Antec TPQ 1200
OS ： Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
B2 already, very nice :)
Also good to see the Tpower supporting it, Biostar might be a viable option for me in the future, with DFI and Abit down...
Hello Gulftown.
Is that a stock cooler?! :nono:
Talking about the chip itself: :slobber: :D
More results, please! :toast:
Actually it's meant to be B1 step 2 hehe
guess cpuz ain't picking them up correctly
4ghz on the stock cooler ? Now that would be nice :)
Yes junior , Stepping 2 is B1 not B2 :D
Hello there new stepping Gulftown :welcome:
I had a similar cpu with me but i am sure that it was not B2 tough, later i was told cpuz was reading 1 core because of the BIOS.

WoW That's Orginal Fan? In CPU Box?
Wait For Some Test In This Stock Fan.......
The heat-sink is kinda hot sad that i did not get one with the i7 980x :(
I would love a 980X but I find the price is just unjustifiable. I wonder if the heatsink will come with the non extreme versions of Gulftown, though I admit that heatsink does look nice, better than the standard POS heatsink.
980X needs a massive cooler like that :DQuote:

980X really needs water for speeds around 4-4.2ghz because the dam thing run very hot, well at least the A0 did.
LN2 ya thats the way to go, i hope this can OC better than the A0 which already did quite well under LN2
That's what it came with. However, since this is "ES", I am not sure what Intel will bundle with their "retail" box cpu...Quote:

so we all flashing 980's around here?

Ive had both A0 and the 980.Quote:

So yes, the B steppings are beasts.
One wierd thing i noticed tho... The A0's like a higher QPI vs the B's unless im seriously doing something wrong... :\
Are these out for purchase? If so where and how much?
in 2 more weeks.
:P
Not the new Q4EG B1 Stepping...cool as a cucumber...only 6 degrees above room temp at idle...never goes above 55C on full 100% load...very nice chip! Hoping for 4.6 24/7....We'll see....It will probably do it, but at voltages I am not comfy with...Quote:

Has nobody put these under a single stager yet? I am guessing 5ghz+ easy for 24/7? All I see is air/water/ln2...
