Well now we know these Cherries exist we should stop waisting mone buying trays just to find a cherries. We should request that Intel bring out a cheerie edition. As i won't be buying $2000 CPU's any more now that i now the odds of a cherrie is a few out of 100,000

The Belgium Space rocket has 1 chance out of 100 to fly to the moon ... The belgium are planning to launch 100 of them ... Do you think they will succeed?

:rofl:

I am french ... nothing wrong with the Belgium , just an old tradition ... and by the way, www.matbe.be is a great source of tech news in Frenchy
And they ARE great overclockers too in Belgium : http://www.matbe.com/articles/lire/1...re-i7-a-5-ghz/

In other words, a rising tide lifts all ships. If one chip can do this, it stands to reason that Intel learns from experience and that's what revisions are for. Eventually, better and better rev chips will hit the retail channel as they always do. Good for you, good for me, good for Intel stockholders.

I remember not too long ago people here were complaining how Intel discouraged overclocking. Now they embrace it and they are still taking heat. I think it's jealousy. I know because I am jealous that guys like FUGGER get all the good stuff - for free no less! :(

Maybe overclocking should have divisions, like "got it for free" versus "paid my hard-earned money for it." :ROTF: Like the NBA versus NCAA hoops, pro versus amateur.

Not only jealous... (neah maybe a bit but i'm happy with my 4800 air too :p:) but i don't like it too give people the wrong impression here, like buy a intel 965 chip and it wil do 5ghz, or all next step will do 5ghz air, (with that amd 6ghz thingie in the back of my mind). just a selected chip who runs fast, if you want one, go ahead , search for that needle in a haystack you problaby wouldn't find.
Selection there is and alway's be there , but selection by intel is just not representive.

last time i joked around like that there was a gizzilion posts and PMs about my joke :rofl:.....being European born myself i thought most ppl would understand this sort of sense of humour :D

lucky you didnt involved Danes cause M.Beier would launch fatwa against you and Intel :rofl:

just a noob

im just curious, what was the ambient temperature when this was done(sorry if you said somewhere else, only noticed 70*C on cores)

M.Beier has moved to Ireland. Hes been examined here as we believe he contains the secrets to the universe... . We'll crack him soon. :up:

Francois, lets say for instance someone was somehow able to purchase all Intel chips that go on sale, would that person be able to find such a monster chip?
Or does Intel test every chip and hold every cherry? (hence making our retail gems only 2nd class)

As in after Intel have finished doing testing they use them as RMA chips?
Proof?

We don t do that ... lol

In the mean time, this part of the process is kept very secret, I know little about it, and what I know, I should not share. I hope you understand, the magic of mass production of processor like Core i7 is kept secret very well.

Just know that we have a paranoid based culture, based on Andy Grove "Only Paranoid Survive" book.

if you want to understand Intel, it is a must read. :up:

Thanks F, i'll take it by paranoid that means that every chip gets tested to make sure it works, and during that testing you may or may not find out its a cherry ;)

BTW, if Intel is that paranoid to test every chip, how come so many people claim that they can easily RMA their chips over and over.... (dont need to answer that - just saying)
