For the QX6850 and the E6850, I think they're great....BUT, in every other model, there are more than a few things to worry about.
1) Some have nasty FSB walls.
2) Many have FSB issues when not used on P35 chipsets (which I never plan to run). X38 will probably be okay as well.
3) Coldbug and LN2 performance seem to be an issue already (not applicable to DC, but it's a worth a mention).
4) It's a budgeting revision....that's HUGE.
4a) it means there's a very high likelihood of future G0s being piss-poor clockers (at least they'll run cool)
4b) it means that yields are higher, at the expense of consistent clocking chips (i.e., there will be more duds, thus more complaints)
And for a better-versed version of what I think: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...8&postcount=85 (and he's not a nobody).
5) my luck with B3s is...very good![]()
