i thought that was the whole point of this new rev at 65nm ? new stepping provides speed bump for existing conroe chips...and less heat

C2D E6850 ES Step 9 E0

C2D E6850 G0...for retail? Q3 07 (22nd July?)

i also thought that q6600 were going down to 266 on july22..but only the older stepping versions


if you can get a q6600 G0 step on 22nd July for 266 usd that'd be nice.

45nm penryn later on at Q407/Q108 - another speed bump for wolfdale.
How would it be possible to box two different versions of the Q6600 without confusion?
