Or the motherboards, but those CPU's are mobile's meant to be clocked at 166mhz FSB, so the FSB part maybe designed to use less power and that maybe the problem... We just hope there'll be some solution in the future :)Quote:

made in week 48 or later.
For sure, temperature is a factor we have to keep an eye on ..
this seems not to be a cpu you can oc with a northbridge cooler.
Even with different aircoolers the T 2600 reacts very , very different :
example :
" stock cooling = 230@ boot @ 1.45v max (1.5v and i get freezed)
sp-94 = 240 @ boot and max 2980mhz
water chiller = 250 @ boot " (XS member)
just my 02. (old world) cents
mine
edit :

it will be interesting when the first D-0 steppings will hit the street
(April 24) . Hopefully AOpen will be prepared with a new bios.
don`t forget the 04/30 timeframe ..Intel price cut
Max screen with radbox : 229MHz (temp idle around 26°C)
Max screen with XP90C + 120mm : 232 (temp idle around 18°C)
=> Temperature is very important between 18 and 62°C (my experience).
anyone know how to disable the fuc*ing speedstep ? :slapass:
old bios or power save in new biosQuote:

I just read this entire thread and I'm a little scared. If people are complaining about the older ES T2600's, I don't even want to install my ES T2300. 10x multi...I'll be lucky to get 2.4ghz :(

anybody get a Nvidia video card to work?
mine ("testing card" 6600GT PCI-E) "works" but cant load drivers...
swapped in an "old" x850xt and every thing run/loads fine.
My 6600 PCI-E works well.Quote:

Does anybody know how to disable RAID, without disabling SATA controler.
