great results really :clap: but I'd love to see more than 3,6ghz orthos stable

You guys may kill me for being so cheap, but what do you imagine would be doable on a G0 Q6600 with stock HSF? 3.0, maybe 3.2 at decent temps for 24/7 use?
I just hope this isn't gonna be a repeat of last year & Core2 Duo's. All the early engineering samples were hitting 4Ghz+ on air for benching & 3.8ghz Prime/Orthos stable easily. Most retail chips struggled to hit 3.6Ghz Prime/Orthos stable when first released, and unitl the "B" batches 4Ghz on air was near impossible. All these Quad G0 results we're seeing are engineering samples. Any retail results turn up yet? Quad core though, not dual. My B3 Q6600 does 3.3Ghz Prime orthos stable @1.36v load. It's 3DMark 06, OCCT, & 32Mb Pi stable @ 3.6Ghz same voltage, but not Prime/Orthos. Any further increase in voltage & it jumps to over 70'C @ load due to air cooling. I will try water soon, but I'm sure I can get 3.6Ghz Prime orthos stable. I'll get a G0 stepping as soon as they're available. I just hope I won't be dissapointed like I was with my first two E6600's.
As impressive as these results are, I'm skipping these and waiting for Penryn... hopefully the P5K and its apparent support of the 45nm can overclock them decently.

yeah i think it will be the same way
Which European e-tailers are selling these at the mo? Im frickin' sold man. :)
Great results lads :toast:
I am getting a QXUZ L712A monday.. cant wait to see it in action..
Hello!
Which CPU will be the better one?
X3230 G0 or Q6700?
Which CPU should i take?
Greetings :)
Geez, I don't know if that can even be done, but I'm not a expert like all these gurus here. Maybe one of them can give you the proper answer.
These babies need good cooling and air flow from what I have seen. I wouldn't chance a stock HSF with this chip.
I odered the Q6600 with the G0 stepping myself but I won't get it until August.
I recived mine yesterday, and damn its good :) I cant wait to get my compressor from LD :)
There's a little info and picture here:

What did you receive ? Any preliminary clocks ?
:up:
Ordered a Q6600 yesterday...
Sitting here fingers and toes crossed hoping to get a G0.
:p~
I received a Q6700 g0 :) 3,6ghz with 1,4vcore and okay low temperatures like, 53-55 prime full load (water cooling, ambient ~ 26 celcius)
Is the Q6700, being a non-extreme version, going to have a locked multiplier?
Upwards ?.. yes
