very nice! What temps are you getting with that? and what cooler if your on air? *granting that at that voltage, it is most likely just bench stable.*

^^ nice. More..uncertain info nailed in the ground :)
Overclocking seems to be pretty similar to AMD now, with raising the bus speed and keeping the HT / QPI in some stable boundary.
hmm week 36. :D
how do u guys get this stuff early?
pretty exciting.... cpu PrOn.
Gotta go shoppin now :D
LOL no...
Alot of retail stores sells before the date. Distributors also got the stuff in advance. Some are waiting on the release date. Some just sell if they can.
You can buy i7 now here aswell in some stores. One store I checked had 100 920, 10 940 and 2 965.
And another one 25 965, 471 920 and 196 940.
Must be alot of insiders eh?
Cant wait till the 17th
yep, here in new zealand theres stock, ive got a i965, i940, i920, intel and p6t boards to test.
- just waiting on TRUE brackets coming next week..
The 6X on the memory multiplier is nice to know, and if I follow the logic ... the doubled frequency has been accounted for in the Gigabyte BIOS, i.e. DDR3-1333 would be 10x with a BCLK of 133. Meaning that for a 4G target OC with a BCLK of 200 MHz for a i7 920 one could get memory to fit within this range with known stability, 6x200 1200 so DDR3-1333 would be fine or you would have some room to OC memory with a multi of 8 or you could use DDR2-1600 and work from there fine as well.
Thanks for the screens...
DP please delete
Think microcenter has them on sale early? I'm tempted to drive there and check.
I got our shipment earlier this week. *officially* new orders won't ship until the 17th. That's the *official* word ;)
Wanna give us a discount?
