He didn't put up numbers, because he has an old stepping 1 core, but look on the front page.Quote:

As soon as he gets a new one expect a full review from him.
Soul, thanks :)
Hrm, it sounds like Stepping 3 doesn't have quite the heat output as stepping 1 did?
Yeah the temps are down it seems...
He put up numbers last nite though after I posted that, not sure what chip he used.
Is it possible that they gave the reviewers the POS scrap ES's to sample? I mean, if I was intel I'd do the same considering if you mess one up you wouldn't want to sell it to the consumer so just give it away to the reviewer.
No, That would be stupid. I'll give the reviewer a POS chip so he can post his sh*tty results to the thousands of people who read his review. Intel could put a piece of Sh*t between two pieces of glass, place a few hundred pins in it and still make a profit. So I don't think thier going to worry about suppling some good procs to the reviewers.Quote:

LOL! I am going to quote that!
That's what I'm trying to say, they make a profit either way. So they don't really care what they give to the reviewers... Could be scrap...Quote:

Now why would they want to do that.Quote:

Scenerio: I own a resturant, A large newspaper critic is coming in to eat some of my food. He will print his review in next mornings newspaper.
Do I:
Serve him a plate with gobs of hair and undercooked food or
Serve him a wonderful meal that I know he will love.
I know what I would do!!
Azzo.com came through. NO BS!!!!

They will get praise from me tomorrow and along with a lot of others with unanswered questions!!!
Also to add, they couldve jacked their price for this up high but they didnt, Sure they are more than the big guys. But they are priceing about the same if not lower than the 2.8 northwoods on their site if you take a look.

What about yours tedinde?
PC PROGRESS is now saying 2/20 for the Precott. I cancelled my order. What a bunch of liars. They said they had it on 2/3 (I think) for next day shipping. I ordered a 2.8E and a 3.2E. They JUST emailed me today to let me know that they were on backorder. They really pissed me off. I will NEVER do business with them again. Just goes to show, stick with what you know. AZZO, Newegg, ZipZoomFly for me only...
what do you mean Skate??Quote:

I may have to order another prescott, 3.0 and see what is happening.:D
Hi guys new here but I will tell you that the date is set for the 20th of this month for the chips. One of the main reasons for the hold back was mob support. As you will see many compaines had to update the bios to make the Prescott to work correctly. Though some may have the chip they wont ship till they know they have support and correct settings on the mob., Also the chip is tested to be hotter I would think that may be cut back in the bios update? But The newer chip sets will most likely be a better option. i think this was over looked and a test run for the chip. Once out there the new chip set will be out by April as there is info out on a release date already
here's my max prescott OC

HOLY CRAP! What kind of cooling charlie?
You will find the answer in his sig...
2.8E.
not sure of the codes, the CPUs in this PC at the moment, but it's coming out tommorow. so I will look then.
terrible CPU in my opinion.
I won't bother trying another for 3-4 months.
this thing brought my R507 Prometeia down to 25C in BIOS.
thats with 1.6 volts on the core when trying to break 4.1 ghz.
didn't happen.
at 1.65 volts, the CPU gets stuck in a constant reboot, over and over.
this CPU would be great for daily use under water at 3.5 ghz I feel.
but not much else.
