yeap, the process technology used is amazing ... Let's try to wait CES to do a firework of numbers ... ;-)
we got some more good news about OC coming at CES.

Does that mean I can bring my 2600K and you can show me how to OC it?:rofl:Quote:

I mean,ahh, when they go retail I will then know how to OC it based on your vast knowledge!:D

omg I need my UD4 from germany
:ROTF: Bottom line ... The people who predicted the end of OC were wrong again ...Quote:

We would appreciate that even if you are not under NDA, and you got something, that everybody respect the CES 1st day as day to start speaking about it , we worked out A.s off on this, behond anything we did before, give us some credit, and let us have a Magic day the day of launch, that would be good for us.
Play with us ;-) , and let it be a big firework!!!

NDA? What's a NDA?:DQuote:

:up: Some shops in Germany need their asses busted - they sold CPUs end of 2010 to end users...hope there will be some legal action taken by Intel. NDA and MOA are important to let everybody have the same chance when the sales start - I got really annoyed when I saw them selling the chips.Quote:

Well unfortunately we already have very good idea whereabouts the OCs will land at due to quite a few guys that isn't under NDA has posted results already, good for aircooling users, not so fun for LN2...
I'd be more interested in hearing Intel's and motherboard makers point of view, why I should still invest in a highend motherboard for a socket 1155 platform despite limited BCLK capabilities? That would be my first question to ask.
Durability or 24/7? Gigabyte has been marketing it for years and now finally branded it :DQuote:

What is the highest 2500k can do guys ? about 110 bucks is the difference between 2600k and 2500k, but if the 2500k can go up to 4500Mhz+ , I think its good enough for 220$ ?
same as 2600kQuote:

Sound interesting, cause my brother is about to get me 2500k or 2600k in malaysia soon, so I have to decide to spend the money on 2500k and a expensive mobo , or 2600k and ... a decent mobo ?Quote:

No, 1156 HSF's fit
Good info, thanks. Perhaps I missed the posts but is there any information regarding temps idle/load, OC?Quote:

still disappointed by the lack of bclk overclocking, you can say bye bye to the times when we bought 40$ chips and clocked the hell out of them (my sister has one of my old E2140s and it runs at 3.4ghz under air (over 100% overclock), my own second rig goes to 3.5ghz with ease)
intel killed low-end overclocking as we know it with this platform and i don't like it...
Maybe another way to look at it:Quote:

Yea, I think its an improvement.:D
Do go on:yepp: I got some scraps from you stats but I wonder the details:D, like clocks, power consumption, etc...:shrug:Quote:

Our review will be up tomorrow morning. After Intel pulled in their launch (maybe because of the AMD chips launching on the 4th? ;) ) we chose to postpone in order to release content that fit our standards.

Can someone clarify the turbo overclocking? So SB overclocks revert back to the standard multiplier and only activates to the turbo multiplier upon load? So what Asus includes as "C3 and C6 report off" simply turns off the reporting of C3/C6 states so it seems like it's always at full speed but it's not?
Good move. I will be sure to give it a read and your site a hit.Quote:
