What do u think is better?I can still use my 3.4Ghz@3.8Ghz or 2600+ XP-M @ 3Ghz @ 2V and i can buy KHX 3000 (hope there r BH-5) and watercooling on 8RDA3I board.

I think 58°C Prime, but I ll use like 2.8Ghz 24/7 and 3Ghz and more 4 Bench. Can I recognize if BH-5 or BH-6 chips r on KHX 3000, by some code writen on the heatspreader? Do u think 134$ is ok for KHX 3000 with BH-5 or BH-6?

And do you trust this friend? Because I have never before seen 3ghz on xp without supercooling. I have one of the best 2600 xp-m I've ever seen, and it does ~2800mhz at 2.0v on watercooling. I can probably get a Screenshot at 3000, but it would be nowhere near stable.
I'm not aware of any code on the Heatspreader for khx3000. I owned A00 A01 and A02, and it was all BH5. But this was about a year ago. Personally I think it's a little bit of a gamble today. If you are planning on making the change for a performance boost, I wouldn't bother. If you are doing it to get some $$ back (3.4c's are pretty pricey I know), then go ahead. But to be perfectly honest, once you take into account 2t, 2800mhz instead of 3000 and a few other factors... your p4 might be back on top.
