GAR,

or

Thanks,

I have both of those sets. I wonder if the heat spreader is the only difference. I cant tell any difference in performance or OC.Quote:

and the price was $79.99, now it's $149. no idea why.
wow why is the price so high, got mine for $80, but yeah thats the one.
which is newer, f5b, or f5? f5b is dated october 31st
@bugjae, i think its called static read in the advance memory sub menu
f5b i should think :up:Quote:

Damn, and I just RMA'd my E8400 today. :/
Actually it appears that F5B is newer than F5, but i still want someone to confirm it with a cpu-z shotQuote:

Need that screenie!
Because i am pretty sure the F5B is newer, since it has a october 31st build date, i dont see the F5 being newer than 5 days old, official bios goes through more testing than 2 days.Quote:

I'm 99% sure Gar knows what's up; his point is why go through that process when someone else could just snap him a quick screenie to confirm what he's already feeling pretty confident about?Quote:
