I think we are going to need to see a least a dozen results before any conclusions can be made. From what I'm seeing C2 results are mixxed...some doing very well, while others doing pretty much what C1 did. Not enough of them out there yet to see a definitive trend. I'm still hopeful though. I wouldn't mind trading up if I can get a few hundred mhz consistently.
^Haven't seen you in a while MD:D
Some of Micro Center store stock 3960K C2 for $599+tax...

Did you check it online or in store? Online, not even their website says they have it.Quote:

Nice. Did you check up to what multi you can let it reset after it hangs at boot ?
Curious if Newegg has C2 3960X myself.
Options at this point are;
Order a 3960X from NewEgg, hope for C2-
or
Drive 15 hours round trip to Microcenter to get a 3930K that will probably be C2.
Newegg has the C2 3930Ks in stock, limit 1

After I posted this, there were no more left. Maybe they found an old C1.
Was hoping they received their batch of C2s.
I'll know on Monday when it arrives what stepping it will be.
These dont seem to run any warmer than SB, you should be able to push it nicely with your SS, get that sucker cold :DQuote:

They do run warmer than sb, a lot warmer.
^ Hey Sin, the 2 chips Ive tried have run pretty cool. I cant see much difference between these and my 2600k's on water. Talked to Dumo today and his chip also runs cool, hes on water with 1.55vcore at 34c, not bad. Dont think it will stress his SS any more than the 2600kl.Quote:

Only thing I changed was the multiplier and Vcore to 1.42v in the BIOS. Boots up fine and can run through 3DMark11 and Intel Burn test perfectly fine. Runs a little warm though, idles at mid to high 30C and ~60C on load (under water, may have to reseat CPU block looks like).
As soon as I hit 49+ mutiplier though it gets stuck at Windows load screen. Should I pump up the voltage? What would be the 24/7 daily Vcore recommendation?
hey i went to my local MC in farifax,va no X79 CPus yet, but a lot of X79 boards, and even more Z68 boards hahahahaha too many Z68 boards they just brought out their entire stock i think.
My C2 costarica 3930K wall @ 5208Mhz....Both water and cold:(
Damn! That is not good news.:(
Can you put it in a "cpu squeezing device" to check if there's any more to wring out of it.:yepp:
Sorry to hear mate but its always luck maybe your next will kick a***Quote:

OC Nub- maybe just the ESes have a lot of heat. But maybe your cooling is too good! haha, i mean the TDP is higher, it should run a bit hotter than SB at the same voltages and frequency.
Why would newegg have C1s? I am pretty sure they ran out of CPUs, and they should only get C2s in.
im getting ready for this :)
