Really liking this 2nd E8500 **0909 cpu just has that little bit extra over my 1st E8500 in nearly all departments, higher FSB 540-555FSB vs 535FSB, lower vcore for 4000Mhz at 1.28v vs 1.304v and now more stable 4.5Ghz at 1.504v load/1.512v idle.

Wprime v1.55 32M and 1024M @4503Mhz 1.512v idle/1.504v load





Systool Dual 32M PI @4503Mhz 1.512v idle/1.504v load





SetFSB my way to 4602Mhz at 1.504v load for Wprime v1.55 32M!
