Everyone go out there and tell everyone how great the Winchesters are. And that they should buy them quick becuase AMD will not be making them anymore. In a few weeks all that will be left will be crappy new Venice cores! ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
OMG rofl!!!!!!!!!!! ;);););););););););)
How amusing if it turned out to be the truth............. :(
Better knock on wood. ;)

While reaching 2.8 GHz with an Athlon 64 has been done before, I don't know if the same can be said about not having to increase the voltage or upgrade the cooling.

Cherry picked ppl, move along, nothing to see here :(

That doesnt mean you dont have a chance at getting a cherry.Quote:

Lol who cares about the NC? They should've compared it to the Winnie. And why the assumption that it was cherry picked?

Remember about the 1.35v or 1.40v thing that was posted and about not being able to tell? Shouldn't the 1.35v cpu's say 1.35 in the IHS like that one?
I'd assume so since that one says 1.4
I thought it was 1.4 or 1.45v????
nope, 1.4 or 1.35
Would it be wrong to assume the 1.35v chips would tend to overclock higher than the 1.4v ones?
Well this kinda sucks then all there seems to be is improved ondie controller but it wont be worth it if a 3000+ Venice is gonna cost me $200 while my winny that 3dmarks at 289x9=2.6 only ebays for $130 :(
Well i ordered a 3000 939 tonight, should be here in 2 days (so monday). Will post back with info (doubt highly highly its a venice)
If its not a Venice, good luck on 2.3GHz :(
HAHA! Check this out:
Venice April 18 in stock
WOOT! Of course this is an Ireland store BUT!, if they get it on that date then SURELY the US and canada should get it at least on that date also right?
Oh boy oh boy oh boy I can't help but feeling excited.
You know, and I know this sounds ominous, but if AMD really is waiting for existing Winchester stock to run down, well I'm pretty sure that Eire's Winnie consumption is lower than USA/Canada's, so they would send fewer that way. Therefore, it stands to reason that they would work their stocks down faster, which is why AMD is sending them Venice April 18th. For all we know, AMD is planning to screw us by waiting until every single last Winnie in the USA is sold, and if it takes until June for that to happen then so be it.Quote:

At this point we shouldn't assume anything. Maybe the chip would have more headroom if it starts at 1.35V, maybe not. Certainly we can hope this is the case, and also hope for the 1.35V chip to be the one in our BPBOXes when AMD finally ships the damn things.Quote:

Nice. Venice 3200+

The results were nothing short of amazing, as I was able to reach 2.8 GHz on the standard 1.4v voltage and with standard AMD air cooling.
is there anyone from Ireland in the forums that can verify that sites info?
