In the Netherlands the G0 steppings wil be aviable half/end of august.
A local retailer told me this intel.

I guess we need to wait some longer

I can't wait that long. This heap of junk is almost dead. I'm buying it as soon as the price drops in less than 2 weeks. I already bought my memory because prices are expected to rise again.

I think 3,2 is possible with the B3 steppings.
I hope you don't have to put the voltages up so high but it's deppending on what you get.

You could go higher but I don't think that wise on aircooling. I want to go for 8 x 400 to get a 1:1 ratio with my memory.

If you have the right Mobo 3.2 is very easy to achieve on air and keep the temps reasonable. 3528 Mhz ,1 week stable contininuous Folding @ Home and temps never exceeded 60 deg c. Ambient temp was 22 deg c. As soon as ambient temp increases I have to back off the OC to keep below 60 deg. I have booted @ 3730 and ran Super PI and a few other apps but an Idle temp of 45 deg is probably going to top out at 75 deg+ and that's too high for me. I have had no troubles clocking the B3 stepping chip so far with my current board. I am sure it will go higher but with my cooling it would just be frustrating to know I can't use it.
CPU and Heat sink are lapped BTW.
