That's true, but it kinda seems Intel went cheap on this one.:shrug:

Very impressive, I like the vid = 1.05v in the Core Temp display, amazing. :clap: :clap:

the pt is that it only needs an eeny weeny cooler at stock or near enuf...use your existing intel cooler if you need a bigger one :lol: i have one in the cupboard teehee

somewhere is selling E8000 today...taiwan and australia as i know..so soon

Hahaha yeah, know what you mean, although I'm not married (yet) lol... somehow she always finds out when I bought something new... ah well it's a hobby, and that costs money right? :up:
Just wondering if I need to replace this 680i board (P5N32-E SLI) or not... I know I have to update my sig...

crazy how good those 45nm intel chips are if such a crappy cooler can keep them safe.... i mean i used bigger coolers in the s370 days

Hope they come in soon. :D
Can't wait to get one! :D

retail coming:)

Incredible CPU ...arrive Retail? when you think is in stock ?

Well i presume this chip was hand picked for the press(INTEL E8500 Presskit review):shakes: . I hope all the other chips will equally run on stock 1.12v.
Pls. can you give us more datas to dream about like how far it can overclock with voltage and temp.:up:

this one is cherry picked

so far i haven't seen anyone prime at 4Ghz with only 1.25v with a dual core

but when we find those good steppings they should be the same or even better :D

just give it more volts:up:

that one might be cherry picked, but people can get lucky and get a good one too, besides, its just the start, i mean look at the improvement of q6600 b3 to g0, i'm sure intel will improve them even further.
