Xeon Gulftown lock multiplier

hmm 19 multi, not that bad would be nice to replace my 3.8ghz 24/7 bloomfield against a 3.8ghz 24/7 gulftown. :D
the retail chip will probably have a higher multi than this, Intel aren't stupid enough to put a CPU at 2.4GHz in the high end consumer market.Quote:

EE has always unlocked multi, but im not really interested into paying 1000€, if i can get something cheaper and get the same performance.Quote:

I can get a gulftown but I need the bios for the P6T Deluxe.

I am waiting on Gulftown Extreme Edition for my next build and am finally making two upgrades:
to SSDs
to 2560x1600
Is there going to be enough graphics horsepower by then to make it all work? It seems Nvidia and AMD/ATI are LAGGING.
I want 2560x1600 DX10 Crysis at 120fps with 16xAA
latest ATI cards....CF them...Quote:

I've been asking around and everyone I've spoken to, says there is no P6T bios out and only gigabyte bios is available.
A little up of the topic for some new info:
The cooler of the beast

Looks like that's why they were so interested in heatpipes technology ;)
LOL? That's the stock EE cooler for Westmere? Finally nice to see Intel getting away from those orb style coolers, at least for the EEs.Quote:

Hmm, that looks like 8 threads in task manager unless I'm missing something? Isn't this supposed to be a hexacore?

lets face the facts, single threaded performance is hitting a wall. the only way to get past this is many core.Quote:

Well, since he asked if there was any way of getting his Vcore down, I assume he tried setting it lower before, and failed ;)

Which bios do you have? Mine is EX58EX.F9A. If yours is newer, would you mind sharing it with me?Quote:
