Post your recent Q6600 purchases here (The Lookout for g0)

**NKD** · 08-08-2007, 01:58 PM

ncixus.com has updated their website, it says right under the processor information that they are only shipping SL9UM today and check back daily for updates. so now they are telling people what they are shipping depending on what day it is. i guess thats good, people are probably returning a lot of b3's thinking that they will get a G0, so if someone gets a b3 they probably wont be able to return it.

now the info seems to be gone, i dont know what that means, i have read in thier forms the intel is shipping mixed bag

I will have to say at stock volts it sure takes very little juice.

What kind of a result did you get? Anything? I knew this was not going to be the board to get the max clock out of a quad but i was hoping to get something around the 3-3.2ghz range. We'll see.

If you mess with it enough you might meet your goal. I did not want to take the time. I wish I would never have bought one as it was only a good mb at best and is not a quad board. Every DFI mb since c2d has been fair to good and very late.

Was there ever a great DFI Intel board?

Check again at ~9pm PST, you should see your tracking number in the order status page.

**nicepun** · 08-08-2007, 05:37 PM

Well I'm experiencing problems with my Q6600 G0 and my early PW5 DH. No matter what BIOS I tried the vcore stays the same "AUTO". So I don't have good results yet. I may have to get a new mobo.

**Ace-a-Rue** · 08-08-2007, 05:41 PM

P975X boards do not do very well with quads.

thanx for the heads up.

**widefault** · 08-08-2007, 06:07 PM

Got my notification of shipment for an X3210 from NCIX yesterday, and they included the bar code and serial numbers from the box. SL9UQ, which is no big deal since it won't be overclocked.

I guess so I tried 7x380 and it was showing 3.42ghz @ Post vice 2.6ghz so I don't know what's going on.

**louie101086** · 08-08-2007, 06:48 PM

i just ordered my g0 from clubit they are now back in stock i hope i can overclock it to like 3.6 on my evga 680i mb

**veilsidebr** · 08-08-2007, 07:04 PM

Im scary to get a B3 by this week....saw that the local store has just got some units of Q6600, but they cant provide me enough info to make me decline the tradement or not...

well, anyways, being a B3 or G0 is really a massively good cpu and i didnt see enough differences out there that would make me say "WOW, G0 rocks".

i'd rather look for a tenth of a second on a race track, than on superpi.

**GripS** · 08-08-2007, 07:08 PM

I just checked out that clubIT site for the first time. They have very reasonable pricing and a fairly broad selection. This looks like a great alternative to newegg. Also showing 'G0' still in stock for those who are looking.

Indeed, I just clicked "PROCESS" on my order for a g0...

I have a p5k premium also coming too! (Sold off the p5w dh and e6600)
Next week shall be fun!

**VAdept** · 08-08-2007, 10:31 PM

Just received a Q6600 B3 Stepping from Newegg. Wondering if I should open it and test my luck or send it back for an exchange to see if they send me a G0. Will they charge me a restocking fee for that if i do? :/

**TheWolf** · 08-08-2007, 11:21 PM

I'm now even more glad I went with TankGuys with my order. I called ClubIt piece of crap business first thing this morning & some ahole told me on the phone that they were out & would not be getting any more for 3 to 4 weeks if then. Liars.

Stay away, far away....

**synergy** · 08-09-2007, 01:59 AM

send it back, and get a GO, you will have better chances of a higher oc.

**VAdept** · 08-09-2007, 05:55 AM

Yeah but are they going to hit me with a restocking fee? I haven't even opened it yet. If im going to get charged 15% I might as well keep it.

Newegg has a live chat/help. Just go there & tell them your not happy with the CPU you got & see what they have to say. They have always been very nice to me when I go live chat with them.
