These uniprocessor Xeons look to be quite the overclocker, but at the same time it's quite annoying Intel has gone this route. It seems very odd that to get the best overclocking CPU, you have to go with a multiplier locked non-Extreme CPU. The Extreme Editions are supposed to be the best that Intel can offer in terms of yield, combined with an unlocked multiplier to provide the best overclocked performance available. It seems the desktop Extreme Edition Kentsfield is binned a cut (or more) below the desktop quad core Xeon. This inferior binning of the QX6700 could easily make it far less attractive to some people, even with the unlocked multiplier, especially when boards are flirting with 450-500MHz FSB with some reliability.
My $0.02...;)
Don't the Quadcore S775 Xeons have the fsb wall as normal Kentsfields do?Quote:

I think there are too few overclocked X3220s to be able to draw any conclusions from the overclocking results seen so far, but those results are promising to say the least. I haven't seen too many retail Kentsfields do as well. My last post was a hope that Intel bins the top speed grades of the Xeon and the Extreme the same, as binning the Xeon higher would cause the Extreme to lose a lot of its luster.
OFFTOPIC: Guys...dont want to be a pain in the ass...but...is there anyone in this forum that i can hook up(is this the correct term?) with to get one of those ES processors? (Not a quad...im looking for a E6600 ES...hehe.) i just cant find anyone here in argentina. :(
I have the same X3220 running at 400x9 1.45 Vcore 24/7 fully loaded with 4 instances of WCG. Stock Tuniq Tower 120 keeping Coretemp readings just under 70C in 20C ambient. Board is unmodded P5B Dlx with 2x1G GSkill 6400 HZ. The chip will go higher with more Vcore, once the WC gear is mounted.

BTW FCG it seems to me that you owe XS some advertising money for pimping your site in this manner.:)

Forum rule #4 violated.
Refer to posts #59, #60 above.
DDTUNG:cool:
Well I guess there are instances where I'm in support of following the rules...

Is eny chance that X3220 will be unlock ( 10 or 11 wiil be ok :) )
Could someone from XS please do a full report laying out what you can link to in the forums. I like Freecable guys link to his Site.
I don't understand why he can't link to it. Its no differant than linking to any site.
Look at the watercooling section seems to be a lot of product promotions there by people who manufactore the products.
So it would be nice if the rules on this were explained in a Thread . More completely than whats stated in the rules thread.
