Well unfortunately there comes a time which someone dreads. To cough up and admit that one was rrrrrrrrong, well sort of. I just installed my first G0 chip into a Striker (E6850) and it behaves nothing like 1030 FSB chips regardless of which multi is used.
Initially I used an E6400, E6600, E6700, and an X6800 and they all exhibited the "crappy over 424 FSB phenomenon". With these chips, Everest Read would have been down 1000MB/s and latency up about 2.0ns. The exact opposite of the benches shown and with looser timings as well. Now it's time to take this chip off water and throw it on phase and see what happens.
