    Intel E8400 with Batch Code T?

    I have one of the first released e8400's.

    The batch code is Q740A473T.

    I've never seen a batch code that has a "T" at the end of it, does any one know if there is any significance to this?

    From the few reading encounters, the T batch is very special. They OC the best. You are special, you have a special chip. Where did you buy it?

    Let's hope my 2 upcoming E8400's are T's then
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree

    I got it on ebay. The guy "said" that it hit 4.4 @ 1.37 Volts, but I'm taking that with a grain of salt.

    I've yet to put the system together and it's going to have to wait a couple of more weeks while I move to my new place.

    Any updates on your 9650 with a "T" on it?

    Both of my "T" chips are excessively hot...30c idle @ 1.2v, load @ 50-55c, under DTeK Fusion.

    L739A745T QX9650 here for my second "T". does 4ghz @ 1.275...

    Haven't had time to tweak it back up that high after switching to DFI X38.
