    Thanks for that post. Iv just got myself a L630F 6400. 3.2Ghz would be fine for me. upgrading from opty 146 @2.8. 400Mhz over that should be a very nice increase in speed

    Intel E8400 @ stock
    Kingston Hyper-x 2x2Gb PC2-8500

    My friend recently got a E6600 L637A from the egg, that does 3.6ghz 1.48v(1.525v BIOS)..............so I guess not ALL of them are bad clockers, but it seems most of them are.

    my 6600 week 37A does 3600Mhz stable at 1.44v but >3600Mhz,it eats voltages like hell,require 1.6v for 3700mhz stable.
