What speed can be expected with one of these cpu's undervolted to 1.0v?
Try 2V pll and see how long it will live :D
Must...resist...until...Nehalem... :eek:
Don't know if it's been posted

xbitlabs OC results:
3.9GHz default 1.2v
4.45GHz 1.4v
4.57GHz 1.5v
Stable air results.
I think that was the first article posted. :S
What about this thing's price? About $300? I would sell my E8400 and get one if it were $200, but I don't feel like wasting money for an extra 150MHz.
It's the 10x multi that's sweet. And I think it will be $266 retail after the dust settles.
just for reassurance, this new stepping is for ALL wolfdales and not exclusively for the new e8600 right?
Since the quads are just 2 duals, I would think that eventually the stepping would follow.
this promises better yorky quads
Im waiting for the E0 E7300 :D
i've been out of the loop with the newer cpu's
whats max Volts and max temps for this chip (safe)
I had a different experience... Back then with P3's and Athlon XP's, sometimes when I forgot to put on the heatsink, the CPU would *fry*. I'd smell the fried silicon--it actually had burn marks on it.
After 10 years of pushing the voltage to the max, I have yet to see a CPU die due to overvoltage. Been running some chips at an insane 0.3-0.4 extra volts for like 2 years or so. Should I let you do the math, or should I do it myself? :rofl::ROTF:
