is ncixus.com shipping B3, or do that send mostly G0 too? I'm going to order tonight, and i'll probably go ncix.com if I can't find any confirmations about ncixus.com ... I'm in the USA if that matters
FYI i ordered a Q6600 today at 4pm EST.
my tracking number i just got now at 9:40pm ESt shows SLACR so it is G0.

Yeah but they have not confirmed that they are all G0 and in another thread someone from the US just got a B3.

i read the thread. i just read it again because i assumed you saw something i didn't. nobody in this thread has confirmed that they received a G0 from ncixus.com ... and that's why i asked the question.
either way, it seems pretty obvious that the safer bet is to just order from canada. lots of G0 confirmed, no B3 reported from there.
There have been some B3's reported today.

aw damn, that blows my plan.
well, since we're reporting stuff.. I picked up a B3 from Fry's, Freemont yesterday. They had a promotional combo sale (cheap mobo) in store. They also had over 100 units. No clue as to whether any might be G0. They couldn't go cherry pick from the cage for me since they were closing. I'll return this B3 if I find a place that guarantees G0 before my 30 day return window closes
People that have received them here are from the US. NCIX and NCIXUS ship all of their products from the same warehouses in Canada.
Click on the Check Stock button on NCIXUS and you'll see all of the warehouses are in Canada.

If ncix is no longer doing B3s which would mean that staff member someone said that informed the customer of all stock being G0s, lied!.. maybe by mistake but still its quit obvious everyone is after G0 so they should have made sure when they said "all stock is G0" that it is in fact all_G0 and NOT B3.
This plus the price increase today from $288 to $297 or so is not good.
Looks like TankGuys is the only place now to get a guaranteed G0. Am I right?
Also just for kicks, if someone was to get a QX chip it would be best to stick with G0 right? Is B3 lower temps (as most are reporting) worth it on a QX chip?

G0 Q6600 from NCIX on its way here, hope it overclocks well with a D-TEK Fuzion. I'll post results when I can. Thanks NCIX
Oh man, I'm gonna be really mad if I get a B3.

Personally I would B*tch and B*tch hard and make them cross ship you a new CPU with G0 Stepping as that is very dishonest and inapropriate to tell a customer one thing and assure them that they have verified that it is indeed G0 Stepping and then send you something completely different like B3 Stepping Get on the Horn and give it to them Lefty....I would!!!!!

I ordered mine from NCIX yesterday and it shipped today and is a B3.
Yes I will, hell she even gave me the product number for the G0 and the B3 so I would know the differencePersonally I would B*tch and B*tch hard and make them cross ship you a new CPU with G0 Stepping as that is very dishonest and inapropriate to tell a customer one thing and assure them that they have verified that it is indeed G0 Stepping and then send you something completely different like B3 Stepping Get on the Horn and give it to them Lefty....I would!!!!!

Here you go guys, not a guaranteed so we'll see what happens. Mine has shipped so I'm debating wether I should canx since it's not a guarantee that I'll get a G0.

Im still waiting for the headlines "Man was told he was receiving a G0 over phone, gets B3 in mail, goes to etailers headquarters and kills everyone."
People are rampant about specifics right now haha, and we dont even know too much about them in terms of overclocking, and as of now most temperature programs are not reading G0 steppings right, people on air cooling with temps below ambient? cmon
EDIT: We do know however, that a "few" cherry chips have been clocking 3.6ghz+ on some decent voltage, but I wouldnt place that in the realm of indefinately better than B3.

In that case you can buy my B3 under the pretence that its a G0 and we will call it a day seeing how you don't mind getting nixed and all
And while you are at it...throw in a extra $50.00 just because I am me!

the problem is that people lie to get their way..........there was never a guarantee as far as i can see from above postIn that case you can buy my B3 under the pretence that its a G0 and we will call it a day seeing how you don't mind getting nixed and all
