I got the chip at Microcenter in Dallas.
I think it has mostly to do with the motherboard and this particular cpu long with the monster power supply. My friend The Nemesis (Walker) has the same cpu batch # as I do. We got them at the same store just a couple of days apart. He is using the DFI X58 and I don't think he's run his bclk this high yet. For the fun of it, we may have to switch cpus and motherboards and see how that works.
I am very close to the end of the line on this one Andre unless I push the vcore to 1.75-1.8 or something crazy like that. I really don't want to find out what it takes to kill a memory controller.
Pros have backup - Novice shows it all up front.
Now Ron struggles to get a backup.
