I take it your also using 32bit xp? the 64bit OSes take more to get stable. I haven't opened up my box with the i7 system yet because I'm waiting on my GTZ waterblock.

Yes. It must be a revision or something similar, (1.25, 1.27,5) the difference of 3V is minor but worth :D
We need to know how accurate his motherboard Vdrop works. If it gets in Windows with 1.20V and the Bios shows 1.25 then in load times the voltage must be also different.
HI~
Testing 3838B079 code ...

How is this one?

Yeah this really sucks...
Thank you can you please elaborate on how to update the chipset drivers though? I run the utility but there seems to be no change can you explain how to update? I created the same directory but it doesn't seems to do anything or maybe I just don't understand exactly what you are talking about...
I could not resist :)

Is there anything wrong with having a "A" code FPO/Batch number?
I just got my 965. Still waiting for my other parts. The number is 3836A383. I am hoping for the best.
I'll have my results up as soon as I get my TRUE.
But for now I have it at 3.4GHz with 1.153v (multimeter).
My batch # is 3838A646 and C0/C1 stepping
Ya, it does nothing without the -OVERALL. Intel is playing it safe.
Create a shorcut. Go to browse and find your utility and after with a space add -OVERALL
For Example, c:/Intel/setup.exe -OVERALL
Or use Run. put the path of the utility and place -OVERALL after.
You are using MS 2006 inf. Intel has the correct ones for better/ proper x58 setup. I think that may fix your file transfer problem. If you still can't figure it out, post the name and path of you utility.exe and I will send you a shortcut. If you update and still have slow speeds, I may be able to help you with that too.
I am pretty sure I have the correct INF the one on my disc is the correct one and I did the -OVERALL and it went through the process but there was no change, which makes me think I had the correct version installed but I'm not sure how to tell.. Here is what I did I put the Inf utility in C:/Intel/INF_allOS_9.1.0.1007_PV.exe -OVERALL then double clicked and it ran.. It just immediately said successfully installed..
I am trying different hard drives right now to see if the problem could be the hard drives....
With -OVERALL it will update them anyway. Go into device manager and look at the date/ manufacturer of one of your x58 devices. If it Intel, you are probably in good shape. If it is MS 2006, you need updating.
Is your update file named INF_allOS_9.1.0.1007_PV.exe ? I have seen the same utility named different.
Put this on your desktop and click it.

Yeah man thanks I have narrowed the problem down to these 1TB Seagate Drives with 32mb cache.. Anytime I try and transfer to these drives from anything else my transfer rates are all f'd up so now I need to know if it's a Seagate problem or a 32mb cache problem.... I would bet on the X58 and the 32MB cache being the problem... Looks like we need one more Inf update somebody call intel and tell them Nvidia called and they want their board back....
Anyway I can transfer from WD Velociraptor to WD velociraptor no problem but any transfer to the Seagate and it's like 5mb/sec versus like 80-100 normally so booo...
I notice that a lot of you are going ape with the overclocks (4.0ghz+) but have sacrificed hyper threading. Anybody have an idea how far most people will be able to stably push an i7 920 with hyperthreading on (using air preferably)?

Have you tried 4.2Ghz?
Answer: If yes
How much voltage to get 4.2ghz stable?
Thanks,
An update: I can run Super PI 32M with 1.5 4.0GHZ too but it freezes when it starts priming.
All retails as of since the release have been the one mentioned by Hornet at the above post.
